===Coat of arms===
{{main|Coat of arms of Kautokeino}}
The [[coat of arms]] was granted on 4 September 1987. The official [[blazon]] is ''"[[Azure (heraldry)|Azure]], a [[Lavvu|lavvo]] [[Or (heraldry)|Or]]"'' ({{langx|no|I blått en gul lavvo}}). This means the arms have a blue [[field (heraldry)|field]] (background) and the [[charge (heraldry)|charge]] is a [[lavvo]] (also spelled ''lavvu''). The lavvo has a [[tincture (heraldry)|tincture]] of [[Or (heraldry)|Or]] which means it is commonly colored yellow, but if it is made out of metal, then gold is used. The lavvu (often spelled as 'lavvo') is still in use by reindeer herders who follow their herds according to the season and food availability of food for the animals, and so it was chosen as the symbol for the municipality. The arms were designed by Arvid Sveen.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Civic heraldry of Norway - Norske Kommunevåpen |url=https://www.heraldry-wiki.com/heraldrywiki/index.php?title=Kautokeino |access-date=21 January 2023 |publisher=Heraldry of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Kautokeino, Finmark |url=https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/no-20-11.html |access-date=21 January 2023 |website=Flags of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=4 September 1987 |title=Godkjenning av våpen og flagg |url=https://lovdata.no/dokument/LF/forskrift/1987-09-04-731?q=flagg |access-date=21 January 2023 |website=Lovdata.no |publisher=Norges kommunal- og arbeidsdepartementet |language=no}}</ref>
