The flag and coat of arms of Slovenske Konjice are prescribed by Decision Odlok o grbu in zastavi občine in mesta Slovenkse Konjice, adopted on 13 February 1992 and published on 13 March 1992 in the official Slovene gazette Uradni list Republike Slovenije, No. 12, with effect on 20 March 1992.
This Decision superseded a previous Decision adopted in 1989 and published in Uradni list Republike Slovenije, No. 30.
The flag is rectangular, in proportions 1:2, horizontally divided
white-yellow with the coat of arms in the middle.
The Municipal Statutes Statut Občine Slovenske Konjice adopted on 25 March 1999 and published in Uradni list
Republike Slovenije, No. 31, slightly changes the wording of the description of the symbol description; The colours are described from left to right as white and yellow, therefore only the vertical flag is described. It would seem that the horizontal flag is no longer official. This was repeated in Statutes Statut Občine Slovenske Konjice (uradno prečiščeno besedilo) adopted on 28 November 2007 and published on 21 December 2007 in Uradni list
Republike Slovenije, No. 118. (text).

Coat of arms of Slovenske Konjice - Image by Željko Heimer, 18 March 2000
The coat of arms of Slovenske Konjice is canting, konj meaning "a horse" in Slovene. It is based on the seal of the market place Konjice of year 1580, showing a silver unsaddled horse rampant on a red field, outlined in goldn yellow. The coat of arms in the present shape has been in use at least since the 1970s.
