The flag was adopted 10 May 1999 after a design competition. Coat of Arms in the centre, based on information from this webpage. Tatry or Tatrzanski county is in Małopolskie vojvodship, county seat: Zakopane (one of the few counties with a differing name for county and county seat).

Here is a translation of the law on the flag of Powiat Tatrzanski:
"In the center is an image of Our Lady of Jaworzyn from Wiktorowek, Queen of the Tatras, superimposed on the stylized highlanderś folk-art. All of it is placed on white background between two vertical green bands"
Not mentioned is a background behind the image of Our Lady - the mountain range featuring the peak of Giewont with the cross.

I wrote to the Tatry county office, but so far have not received any response. I have a suspicion or hypothesis. The succession of stripes, because of the huge Coat of Arms, is probably 1:2:1. Big Coat of Armss with 3/4 flagheight are at present characteristic for Polish vexillology. The vertical division 1:2:1 does occur frequently. When I get an answer from Tatry I'll let you know.
