The Badge of the General Fono as approved by Queen Elizabeth II, Queen of the Realm of New Zealand

The national badge of Tokelau depicts a tuluma, which is a traditional Tokelauan carved wooden “tackle box” used by local fishermen. A white cross in the centre of the tuluma and the inscription below Tokelau mo te Atua (Tokelauan, "Tokelau for God") reflect the strong influence of Christianity in Tokelau.[1]

Tokelau's parliament, the General Fono, uses an identical design surmounted by St Edward's Crown.[2]
