Queen Elizabeth II's personal flag is used on any building, ship, car, or aircraft in which she is staying or travelling. It is often used to represent Elizabeth in her role as Head of the Commonwealth or as monarch of a Commonwealth realm in which she does not possess a unique flag. This flag was created in 1960 and first used in 1961 for the Queen's visit to India.

The flag bears the crowned letter E in gold, surrounded by a garland of gold roses on a blue background, with a golden fringe. The crown is a symbol of the Queen's rank and dignity, whilst the roses symbolise the countries of the Commonwealth. The emblem appears in the Queen's personal flags of Australia, Barbados, Jamaica, Canada, and New Zealand.

The flag was created upon the Queen's request in December 1960 to symbolise her as an individual, not associated with her role as sovereign of any particular Commonwealth realm.
