TABATINGA

State : São Paulo

Origin/meaning :
The arms were granted on February 23, 1973.
The three wavy bends in the first quarter represent the three streams which flow near the city; the cross and the fleur de lys in the second quarter evoke the hamlets of Nossa Senhora do Bom Conselho (Our Lady of the Good Counsel) and of Santa Cruz (Holy Cross) which were united, giving place to the city of Tabatinga.
The supporters show that coffee and orange are important agricultural products of the region.
The shield is surmounted by a mural crown appropriate to a city and a scroll below the shield bears the name of the city.
