The National emblem of Mongolia[1][2][3][4][5] (Mongolian: Монгол Улсын төрийн сүлд, Mongol Ulsīn törín süld) is used by the government of Mongolia as its symbol of state. It is officially used for example on documents such as Mongolian passports, and government and embassy placards.

Description

The state emblem was adopted on February 12, 1992, when the new constitution came into force. The details of it are laid out in Chapter 1, Article 12(3) of the Constitution of Mongolia.[1][5]

The outer rim features a tumen nasan, symbolizing eternity, surrounding a circular blue field, symbolizing the

khadag (Хадаг), a ceremonial scarf.[1]

History

From 1960 to 1991, the

industrialization
, sheaves around the perimeter stand for the farming class, and the top featured a red star with the socialist version of the Soyombo. Along the bottom, a blue-red ribbon is placed in front of the gearwheel, with the letters БНМАУ, the abbreviation for Бүгд Найрамдах Монгол Ард Улс, (Mongolian People's Republic).

Before 1961, the emblem did not bear most of the socialist symbols. The horseman carried a long

Cyrillic
abbreviation after that.
