Overview

Vojnic is a community some 20 km southeast of Karlovac in the Karlovac County. Until 1997 it was part of the Sisak-Moslavina County.
The coat of arms and the flag must have been adopted in late 1990's. The flag was seen on TV and by Tomislav Šipek in 2003. The Coat of Arms is found on a header ofa document at <alert.zeleni.hr (23.12.2003).
The coat of arms of Vojnic is Or a boar's head erased sable lagued gules and armed argent.
The flag is blue with the coat of arms in the middle.
Probably there is a ceremonial flag to go with it, as much as these are probably designed by Heraldik-art d.o.o.
It appears that the initially used dark blue background of the flag that was was around 2000, was replaced with the light blue one, probably without any actual change of legislation.

The ceremonial flag may be see on photos at the news articles of the local Radio station. A few other similar photos show the ceremonial flag, but never quite so clearly to discern the details of the ornament below.
It appears to be a blue gonfalon with triangular end with fringe, above the coat of arms is golden inscription of the community name in two arches, below two oak branches.
