🏳️White Flag Emoji
🏳️ white flag — U+1F3F3 U+FE0F, added in Unicode 7.0 (2014). Unicode groups it with the other 8 other flags emojis under Flags.
What 🏳️ white flag means
Eight flags that belong to nobody in particular. 🏁 ends a race or a project, 🏳️ concedes an argument, and 🏴☠️ covers piracy in both senses. 🏳️🌈, built as a sequence joining the white flag to a rainbow, was added in Emoji 4.0 in 2016, with the transgender flag 🏳️⚧️ following in 2020. 🚩 now mostly warns about someone's behaviour rather than marking a spot.
Unicode tags this one flag, waving and white and files it under Flags → Other Flags.
Copy variants
