The original [[coat of arms]] was granted on 8 November 1979 and it was in use until 1 January 2020 when a new version of the arms was put into use. The official [[blazon]] was ''"[[Gules (heraldry)|Gules]], a [[Bar (heraldry)|bar]] [[Or (heraldry)|Or]] between three [[fleur-de-lis]] of the same"'' ({{langx|no|I raudt ein gull bjelke følgd av tre gull liljer, to over og ei under bjelken}}). This means the arms have a red [[field (heraldry)|field]] (background) and the [[charge (heraldry)|charge]] is a horizontal stripe across the middle, with three [[fleur-de-lis]] designs (two above the stripe, one below). The charge 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 design of the arms was derived from the arms of Sigurd Brynjulvsson Galte, a medieval [[Nobility|nobleman]] from the area. They can be seen on his gravestone from 1302 at the local church. As it is the oldest [[Headstone|gravestone]] in the church, the arms were well known in the village, hence the choice for the arms of this [[knight]] as municipal arms. The arms were designed by Magnus Hardeland. The municipal flag has the same design as the coat of arms.<ref name="NK">{{Cite web |title=Civic heraldry of Norway - Norske Kommunevåpen |url=https://www.heraldry-wiki.com/heraldrywiki/index.php?title=Ullensvang |access-date=2023-05-20 |publisher=Heraldry of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Ullensvang, Hordaland |url=https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/no-12-31.html |access-date=2023-05-20 |website=Flags of the World}}</ref>

A new [[coat of arms]] was granted in 2019 for use starting on 1 January 2020 after Odda and Jondal municipalities were merged with Ullensvang. The new arms were the same design as the previous arms, but they incorporated the colors from the old arms of [[Odda Municipality]] (blue and white instead of red and gold). The official [[blazon]] for the new arms is ''"[[Azure (heraldry)|Azure]], a [[Bar (heraldry)|bar]] [[argent]] between three [[fleur-de-lis]] of the same"'' ({{langx|no|I blå ein sølv bjelke følgd av tre sølv liljer, to over og ei under bjelken}}).<ref name="NK" /><ref>{{Cite web |title=Ullensvang kommune, våpen |url=https://foto.digitalarkivet.no/fotoweb/archives/5003-Kommunev%C3%A5pen/Kart%20og%20tegninger%20og%20segl/Ullensvang%20kommunev%C3%A5pen.tif.info#c=%2Ffotoweb%2Farchives%2F5003-Kommunev%25C3%25A5pen%2F%3Fq%3Dullensvang |access-date=2023-05-21 |website=Digitalarkivet |publisher=Arkivverket |language=no}}</ref>
