Description of the coat of arms from the municipal
statute:
"Municipality has its symbol.
The symbol of Municipality is a coat of arms which incorporates
several symbols.
A bell with a cross and four letters "S" in the upper
left quadrant on a blue background symbolizes the original name
of the town–Zvorik, which is related to the word `bell', and
number 1410 represents the year when the town was named Zvornik.
A tower in the upper left quadrant on a red background is the
symbol of the town.
Stylized wolf's head in the lower left quadrant, on a red
background, represents peoples' constant struggle for freedom.
Water waves in the lower right quadrant symbolize the river
Drina."

"Zvornik Municipality's coat of arms was adopted in 1996.
[...] The use of symbols is regulated by a special decree of the
Municipal Assembly."
No flag is mentioned in the statute.
