Flag Description: The rectangular flag consists of a pure white field with the municipal coat of arms centered on it, above the blue serif text 'NAGYHAJMÁS' in capital letters. The shield of the coat of arms has a golden and white border. The upper part of the shield is party per pale: the left blue field (viewer's left) features two silver church towers topped with crosses, while the right red field shows a silver onion with roots. The lower part of the shield is gold with green triple hills at the base, displaying a radiant golden sun on the left and a silver crescent moon on the right.

Symbolism: The silver onion in the red field is a canting element referring to the village's name ('hajmás' derives from the Hungarian word for onion) and its agricultural heritage. The two church towers symbolize local sacred architecture and spiritual heritage. The green triple hill represents the hilly landscape of Baranya County, while the sun and crescent moon are traditional heraldic motifs representing light, time, and celestial protection.
