What 🇪🇺 is made of

This symbol is written with several code points rather than one. Here is what stands behind it, in order.

  1. 🇪 country letter U+1F1EA
  2. 🇺 country letter U+1F1FA

Will your readers see 🇪🇺

The symbol predates 2018, so every system in use today draws it. Safe for an email, a heading or a signature.

  • Apple always there
  • Google always there
  • Microsoft always there
  • Samsung always there

Checked against release descriptions on August 31, 2026. When new emoji reach devices.

Where the 🇪🇺 emoji is used

The 🇪🇺 smiley copies in one tap and pastes into a chat as text, not as a picture: it is a Unicode symbol, so it works the same in WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord and in a post caption. Every platform draws emoji its own way — below you can see how flag: European Union is drawn in the open Noto, OpenMoji and Twemoji sets.

How the smiley looks on different platforms
