The Regiment was presented with Colours on 27 October 1963 by the Governor of NSW, Lieutenant General Sir Eric Woodward KCMG, KCVO, CB, CBE, DSO. The Queens Colour is the traditional Great Union with the unit title inscribed in gold on a crimson circle in the centre. The Regimental Colour is dark green with a wreath of wattle around a centrally placed device comprising the crest of the University of New South Wales surrounded by the unit title. The wattle wreath is surmounted by a crown.

New Colours were presented to the Regiment by the Governor-General of Australia, The Hon. Sir William Deane, AC, KBE at Victoria Barracks, Paddington on 22nd August 1998.

The Old Colours of UNSWR were laid up in the Greek Orthodox Church of St Spyridon, Kingsford on 3rd March 2001.
