The flag of Vojvodina is based on the Serbian flag. In the Flag of Serbia, all three coloured stripes are of equal width, but in the Flag of Vojvodina, the blue field (in the middle) is much wider. Its use of the colours of Serbian flag marks that Vojvodina is a part of Serbia.

It has three yellow stars which are representing: Backa, Banat and Srem, parts of Vojvodina, but they also resemble the flag of EU, which signifies that Vojvodina is a European region, and that Vojvodina hopes to became a member of the EU sometime, as part of Serbia.
