During the swearing-in of the President of State Council, a fixed flag could be seen, square, red with the Council's coat of arms in the centre. The arms shows the Spanish arms within a blue bordure on which "CONSEJO DE ESTADO" is written in gold lettering at the top and "PRAEVIDET" and "PROVIDET" at the bottom, with an eye between both words. The whole within a silver cartouche, surmounted by a Royal crown and surrounded by olive branches.

The Council shall have as emblem, as well as the coat of arms of Spain, the "eye" of the Administration, with the motto "praevidet providet" and the royal crown.
