It appears Concordia does not use a municipal flag.

The coat of arms of Concordia was designed by Luz Patricia Tirado Murray, adopted through a call for submissions from the council and made official on 22 January 1979. The shield is divided into four sections, with an inescutcheon. The upper-left section depicts an Indian, who populated the land in pre-Hispanic times, and a snake referencing the origin of the place's name, "place of snakes". The upper-right section depicts a knight, with a crossed sword and feather behind him, and a cross below for Christianity, representing chivalry and the Spanish era. The lower-left section depicts the church of San Sebastián on fire, a reminder that the French set Concordia on fire in 1865. In the lower-right, the economy of the place is represented through the: furniture, artisanal, and mining industry; represented individually by the rocking chair, the ceramic jugs, and pheasant holding a pick (in the area there was a mine called "El Faisán", which translates as such). In the center is the goddess Concordia holding a torch, signifying peace and union between peoples. Above the shield is a scroll reading Concordia.

The shield has a silver border. To its sides are corn plants for agriculture. Below is a ribbon divided into three reading "UNION TRABAJO PAZ" [Union, Work, Peace]. The shield is divided into three sections. To the upper-left is a house with a soldier in front, likely for the Revolution. To the upper-right is an image of the local Temple of the Immaculate Conception of Mary. The lower section depicts a head of cattle for cattle-raising, with a ribbon reading MESILLAS.
