N.V. Scheepsvaart Maatschappij Suriname. Suriname was of
course under Dutch control when it was formed with addresses in
both countries though by the later 1950s only that of Suriname
appears in Lloyds. According to an article in the Flag Bulletin
XIV:4 8/1975 the flag dated from 1956 [the company was operating
by at least 1953] and a change was being considered because the
colours were in Dutch tradition. This would appear to be a follow
on from the independence of Suriname which resulted that year and
the result was a change of the blue to green in a new flag which
is shown by Brown 1995. The Brown version also shows minor
differences in that the orange and white bands are shown as
narrower but this may have no significance. I find no support for
any relationship with Veerenigde Nederlandsche
Scheepvaartmaatschappij with the incorporation of a diagonal
triband of national Netherlands colours being an understandable
coincidence.

N.V. Scheepvaart Maatschappij Suriname, Paramaribo - flag
divided: at hoist vertical orange stripe; at fly red over green
separated by white hoistdiagonal stripe. The flag has green
instead of blue like the image below; flag-change probably after
Suriname's independence.

The magazine 'De Blauwe Wimpel' (a monthly for shipping and
shipbuilding) of April 1956 contains a flagchart, entitled:
"Kaart van de maatschappijvlaggen en schoorsteenmerken der
51 bij de Koninklijke Nederlandsche Reedersvereeniging
aangesloten rederijen." That is: Chart of Houseflags and
Funnelmarkings of the 51 shipping companies who are members of
the Royal Dutch Shipowners Society.
Here is N.V. Scheepvaart Maatschappij Suriname, Paramaribo. This
looks like a filial of the Vereenigde
Nederlandse Scheepvaartmaatschappij, Den Haag.
