The South Sudan government in October issued restrictions on the use of state symbols including the Seal of the Republic, the National Coat of Arms, the Presidential Flag and the National Flag.
The government indicated that there has been rampant misuse of state symbols by citizens and business community at large as logos, billboards, advertisements and as business cards.
The guidelines indicated that the National Flag except as otherwise provided for under the provision of the National Flag Act, 2011 or any orders issued by the President of the Republic shall not be flown, displayed or used as part of the Logo of any public institution or Ministry, National Bodies, Political Parties or any other body corporate.
The national flag cannot be used as a drawing in non-official functions and occasions or as a drawing on private vehicles or a cover for any vessel or boat.
It cannot be used as a cover for coffin unless approved by the President of the Republic or Head of South Sudan Diplomatic Missions Abroad as the case may be.
