The Dutch Caribbean Coast Guard (Kustwacht Caribisch Gebied) is the coast guard of the Netherlands in the Dutch Caribbean. The unit is a joint effort of all constituent countries within the Kingdom (Aruba, Sint Maarten, Curaçao, and the Netherlands). The Dutch Caribbean Coast Guard is under the operational control of the Dutch Navy and is commanded by the commander of the Navy in the Caribbean.
Its flag is yellow with its coat of arms placed at hoist side of the flag. Three diagonal stripes of Dutch national colors are placed at fly.
