After the collapse of the Soviet Union, many designs were used by separatists from Crimea.ref name=fotw-proposalfotw.net — Crimea - 1992 Proposals (Ukraine)/ref The most commonly used design in public was a white flag with a blue outline map of Crimea, reminiscent of the Flag of Cyprus. However, many Verkhovna Rada of Crimea members had supported the version of a white flag with seven rainbow colors at the top.ref name=fotw-proposalfotw.net — Crimea in the Soviet Union/ref Crimea proclaimed self-government on May 5 1992,refWolczuk, Kataryna Catching up with 'Europe'? Constitutional Debates on the Territorial-Administrative Model in Independent Ukraine  (англ.). Taylor Francis Group Проверено 16 декабря 2006./ref but no official flag was chosen.

On June 5 1992, five proposals were submitted to the Crimean Parliament:

1. Blue–white–blue tricolor with large white space and narrow blue strips at the top and bottom edges of the flag.
2. White flag with seven rainbow colors at the top.
3. White over light blue field.
4. Yellow–green–blue tricolor with a same size red vertical stripe at the hoist.
5. The current blue–white–red design with the coat of arms in the center.

Proposal 5, designed by V. Trusov and A. Malgin, was selected to be the flag of Crimea.ref name=fotw-proposalfotw.net — Crimea - 1992 Proposals (Ukraine)/ref The coat of arms of G. Jefetov and V. Jagunov was recommended for display on the flag. The final design for the flag was submitted in the second session of the Verkhovna Rada of Crimea on September 24 1992. The flag was only officially adopted on April 21 1999.

Other flags

Crimean Tatars

The natives of Crimea, the Crimean Tatars, use their own traditional flags. A light blue flag with a golden damğa was used as the state and civil flag, the green colored flag was used for religious purposes, and the red colored flag was used as the Tatar's military flag.ref name=fotwfotw.net — Crimea: The Tatars (Ukraine)/ref Currently, only the light blue flag is used, which is now an ethnic flag of the Crimean Tatars. The golden colored damğa was used in the upper left corner of the flag and sometimes in the center.

The religious flag of the Crimean Tatars is green colored with a golden damğa in the top left corner of the flag. It was used by the Republic of Crimea in 1917-1918, officially adopted in November 1917, and later abolished in January 1918.ref name=fotwfotw.net — Crimea: The Tatars (Ukraine)/ref

Crimean Tatar traditional damğa

When Crimean Tatars declared their independence as the Crimean People's Republic from the Russian Empire at the end of 1917, they were seen displaying a light blue and gold tricolor flag with the golden stripe in the center.ref name=fotwfotw.net — Crimea: The Tatars (Ukraine)/ref The Crimean Tatars' independence was short-lived, and when Russia took control of Crimea in the beginning of 1918, the flag was abolished.ref name=fotwfotw.net — Crimea: The Tatars (Ukraine)/ref

Crimean government under General Sulkievich (1918)

The short-lived Crimean government (русск. Крымское краевое правительство), led by General Suleyman Sulkievich (a Lithuanian Tatar by origin), existed during the German occupation of Crimea (June 25–November 15 1918), in which the Crimean government proclaimed a self-rule. Sulkievich's government adopted a flag which seemed to be a compromise between Crimean Tatars and the Russians. It was a traditional Crimean Tatar blue-colored banner, but it had the coat of arms of the Russian Empire's Taurida Governorate instead of the Crimean Tatar damğa.

Soviet Union

When the Crimean ASSR was established as part of the Russian SFSR on October 18 1921, it received its own flag. The flag was red, and spelled in golden letters were the Cyrillic letters КрССР and the Arabic alphabet ق س ش ج. The lettering on the flag was changed to include КрАССР and QrMSŞÇ in the Uniform Turkic Alphabet in 1929 in order to indicate Crimea as an Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic. The flag was amended yet again in 1938 with the lettering Cyrillic РСФСР at the top (for Russian SFSR) and КрАССР at the bottom. After Crimea was transformed into the Crimean Oblast (region) on June 30 1945, its flag was abolished.ref name=fotw-ussrfotw.net — Crimea in the Soviet Union/ref
