Sint Maarten flag emoji FAQ
Why does the Sint Maarten flag show as SX on my screen?
Your system has no flag artwork and shows the two regional indicator letters instead. This is normal on Windows. Phones, Macs and most browsers on other systems display the flag.
How do I get the Sint Maarten flag emoji on Windows?
Windows shows letters, not flags, so copy πΈπ½ from this page and paste it into apps that draw their own emoji, such as Chrome-based websites, Slack, Discord or WhatsApp Web, or use a flag-capable font.
Is πΈπ½ the same as π²π«?
No. πΈπ½ is Sint Maarten, the Dutch side, and π²π« is Saint-Martin, the French side of the same island.
