Overview

Novo Virje is community about 15 km east of Koprivnica and some 5 km NE of Šurdevac. It was established in 1997. The statutes of the community issued in the official gazette (<www.glasila.hr>) describe the coat of arms and the flag: Statut Opcine Novo Virje, 30. rujna 2001. Službeni glasnik Koprivnicko-križevacke županije, br. 11/01, god. IX, Koprivnica, 5. listopada 2001.
The coat of arms of Novo Virje is: Azure a St. Joseph's staff maroon issunat from base from which are issuing three lilies argent. The flag is blue with white bordered coat of arms of Novo Virje.
These symbols must have been adopted after 1998, I guess. The community site at <www.novo-virje.hr> shows the coat of arms.

Ministry of Administrytion approved the design on 17 February 1999. Design by Vanja Garaj.

The official gazette since 2000 is available on the web site of the County at <www.kckzz.hr> including decisions on symbols of its cities and communities. The communities adopted new statutes in 2006, typically containing the descriptions of coat of arms and flags adopted previously, so I just quote them for documetry purposes:
Novo Virje: Statut Opcine Novo Virje, 24.01.2006, Službeni glasnik Koprivnicko- križevacke županije, br. 1/06, 26.01.2006.
