United States flags which have been flown above the U.S. Capitol building can be purchased through my office. I can have the flag flown in honor of a special event (for example, an anniversary) or in honor of a specific person (for example, a birthday or retirement). Each flag comes with a certificate of authenticity from the Architect of the Capitol certifying that it was flown over the Capitol.
The prices for flags are as follows:
| Flag Size | Price | Postage | Flying Fee | Total Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3' x 5' Cotton | $9.25 | $ 4.80 | $ 4.05 | $ 18.10 |
| 5' x 8' Cotton | $20.00 | $ 4.80 | $ 4.05 | $ 28.85 |
| 5' x 8' Nylon | $18.00 | $ 4.80 | $ 4.05 | $ 26.85 |
| 4' x 6' Nylon | $13.50 | $ 4.80 | $ 4.05 | $ 22.35 |
| 3' x 5' Nylon | $9.00 | $ 4.80 | $ 4.05 | $ 17.85 |
To order, please send a check made out to "U.S. Department of Treasury." Please include the name and address where the flag should be sent and mail your request to:

Please allow extra time for shipping, as the flag system is currently receiving more orders than it can process. We appreciate your understanding. My Washington office will be happy to answer any questions you may have about the process.
