image by Tomislav Šipek, 18 November 2015

Blazon: I rødt et sølv hjul. In English Gules a wheel argent
Approved by the royal resolution of 12 January 1990, after a drawing by Per Hartvigsen after the idea by Aina Heidal from Evenes.

The wheel is said to represent Evenes as an old church and regional centre in Ofoten and it shall also represent communications as a new industry.
