The official emblem of the Syrian Arab Republic. Its head is directed towards its left wing, and in the middle of its body is an Arab gear, with the official flag in the vertical position (in its right is a red color, in the middle is a white color, with two green stars in the middle facing upwards, and in its left is a black color) in addition to two ears of wheat symbolizing fertility and life. The eagle holds in its claws a ribbon inscribed in the Kufic script "Syrian Arab Republic". The eagle, the ribbon, and the two ears of wheat are in golden color, and the writing and the lines of the wings are in light brown.

The logo was adopted by Law No. 37 issued on June 21, 1980 AD after its approval by the People’s Assembly on June 17, 1980 and published in the Official Gazette, issue No. 26 of 1980.
