It appears the municipality does not use a municipal flag.

The coat of arms of Baviácora was designed by Manuel García Madrid, probably being adopted in the '80s at the petition of the council. The upper half of the shield is vertically divided into the national colors, bearing wheat on the left and the Church of the Immaculate Conception in the center, with the Sonora River moving its way across and plants beside it. Just above the church is a white flower. The red depicts a feather in ink for education, extending down into the lower half. Imposed over a red diamond is a head of cattle and a crossed pick and shovel to the left of it, symbols of the local economy (ranching and mining). The lower half is also shaped as a diamond horizontally; on the lower-right is a squirrel over green, and similarly on the lower-left is a fruit and feather. Dividing both halves horizontally is a band (with yellow at the top and red on the bottom), reading "P. BARTOLOME CASTAÑO S.J. FUNDADOR" [Father Bartolomé Castaño Society of Jesus; Founder]. Flanking the coat of arms on both sides are branches; the one on the left with acorns; and to the right with berries for sustenance, remembering the natural environment. The shield is outlined twice, in black and red. Above the shield is a ribbon reading "ENCUENTRO CAMINO O LO ABRO" [I find a route or I open it]. Just above this is a ribbon with the municipal name. Below the shield is a scroll that reads "1639 N. SRA. DE LA CONCEPCION DE BABÍCORI 1931" [foundation by Jesuits year, the name of the original church, and municipalization year].
