The flag has three stripes blue-yellow-blue, of equal width. So the flags
of Balzers and of Gamprin are identical. The official
texts for the communes say that they can also use their coats of arms to make
flags (banners of the arms). (Sources:
[kra82] and the Decree of H.R.H., the
Reigning Prince, granting a coat of arms and a flag to the commune of Gamprin,
of the 30th April 1958.)

The arms are azure with a golden diagonal wavy strip, and a silver and
gold rose in each azure field. The golden strip symbolises the site of Gamprin
on the Rhine river. The two roses are reminders of the knights of Limpach who
owned land in Bendern and on the Eschnerberg, land which was given by Roger of
Limpach to the cathedral of Coire in 1194. The
arms of Gamprin were adopted on 3 April, 1958.
