It appears Guadalcázar does not use a municipal flag.

The coat of arms of Guadalcázar was adopted under the term of Municipal President Cirilo Gerardo Méndez Aguilar (1997-2000). The council held a call for submissions in 1999, with the design by Crescenciano Castilleja Gómez being approved on 17 May 1999 as the official municipal coat of arms. The shield has a wooden border, with an eagle having its wings spread out above it signifying liberty. The lower part of the border depicts two swords and two rifles crossed together, the Spanish weapons signifying the constant fight. It has as its base two agave plants; the lower-left depicts a row of cactus for its flora and the lower-right depicts a row of corn for agriculture. Under the shield, a yellow ribbon reads "GUADALCAZAR". The inner area is divided into four sections. The upper-left section depicts a hammer and pickaxe for mining, depicted in front of the mountains. The upper-right section depicts the regional fauna: sheep, horse, goat, and calf as part of the principal economic activity of the area. The lower-left section depicts the regional flora: a lechuguilla plant, barrel cactus, cactus, and an oak tree. The lower-right section depicts the tower of the San Pedro Apóstol church, to the right of the image of San Pedro Apóstol carrying a cross and the Key to Heaven as patron saint of the Municipality venerated on 29 June each year; this also symbolizes the evangelization of the region.
