The shield of the arms is Gules a saltire Or and in chief a rose Argent barbed and seeded Or. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll (Bénard Guedes style) reading in black upper case letters "TUIZELO - VINHAIS". Tuizelo seems to be an unique toponym in Portugal; the reason to add the name of the municipality on the scroll eludes me. Variants reading only "TUIZELO" are likely.
