The plain tricolour is the state's civil flag. Government authorities use the state flag (Landesdienstflagge), where the flag is defaced by the state coat of arms.

The flag was introduced in 1843 and banned in 1845. It was reintroduced in 1867 after the Prussian annexation of Schleswig-Holstein. It was again abolished in 1935. After the British Military Government made Schleswig-Holstein a German state in 1946, this flag was first hoisted after some debate on 29 August 1946. It was formally established as the flag on 18 January 1957.

The tricolour was previously used for the Prussian province of Schleswig-Holstein (1868-1946).
It is almost identical to the flags of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, as well as the flag of the Netherlands inverted.
