On 1 January 2020, the old �fjord Municipality and Roan Municipality merge into the new �fjord Municipality.

The result of that merger is that the new �fjord Municipality took over the symbols of the now former Roan Municipality, but so far I have no flag information to confirm this, only the coat of arms.
