The coat of arms of Duplek is "Per bend sinister, or a dragon with the body of a snake sable spitting fire gules, azure a raft bendwise or".
The dragon is part of the coat of arms of the rulers of Vurberk, presumably the old name of the municipality. The raft is of a kind that is used traditionally on the river Drava.
