The name of the national holiday has been changed from “Day of the State Emblem of the Republic of Belarus and the State Flag of the Republic of Belarus – second Sunday in May" on the “Day of the State Flag, State Emblem and State Anthem of the Republic of Belarus – second Sunday in May."

The new name will pay tribute to all three state symbols of Belarus.
