What the Kosovo flag emoji means
The Kosovo flag emoji shows a blue field with a gold map of the country and six white stars above it. People use it for national pride, football and family ties across the diaspora. Independence Day is 17 February, marking the 2008 declaration. Kosovo has no official ISO code, so XK is a widely used user-assigned code that major platforms support.

Kosovo flag emoji FAQ
Why does the Kosovo flag emoji show as letters XK?
Your device has no flag artwork for it. Windows uses letters for all country flags, and some older apps do the same. On iPhone, Android and Mac the flag appears.
How do I get the Kosovo flag emoji on Windows?
Windows 10 and 11 show letters, but you can copy the flag from this page and paste it into Chrome, Edge, WhatsApp, Telegram or social media, where it displays as a flag.
Why does ๐ฝ๐ฐ not show on some devices?
Kosovo is not in the official ISO list, so a few older systems and apps skip it. You may see the letters XK instead. Updating the OS usually fixes it.

No. Both are blue with yellow, but ๐ฝ๐ฐ has a gold map and six stars while ๐ง๐ฆ (Bosnia and Herzegovina) has a yellow triangle and white stars on a diagonal.
