The flag of Kuwait consists of three horizontal stripes and a black trapezoid. The aspect ratio is 1:2.

Top stripe: Green (Pantone 349 C) Middle stripe: White Bottom stripe: Red (Pantone 186 C) Trapezoid: Black

The green, white, and red stripes have equal heights, each occupying 1/3 of the flag's height. The black trapezoid has its shorter parallel side along the hoist with a length equal to the flag's height. The longer parallel side extends from the top-left corner to the bottom-right corner, dividing the flag into two equal halves.
