This is a list of maritime house flags of international shipping companies. Historically, house flags were flown from the mainmast, but in recent times they are now usually flown from the jackstaff. House flags may take on a wide range of appearances or shapes, with many Commonwealth companies opting to use a triangular swallowtail pennant, although this is not universal, or is it compulsory under Admiralty regulations.
