Description of the flag

On line, in a local official document, it says:

diseño de la bandera de la Región San Martín

meaning «design of the flag of the San Martín region», which suggests that there is a regional flag in San Martín.
António Martins, 22 Mar 2006

Though the flag was adopted informally in 2015, it was not until August 2, 2017 that the flag was adopted as official by Regional Ordinance N� 013-2017-GRSM/CR. For whatever reason, the official adoption of this flag was quite delayed.

Earlier flag

San Martin used the triangular red-white flag, although I don't have photo evidence. Before that it had a vertical green, white, green flag (like Nigeria).
