Seal of the On-Site Inspection Agency
On a sphere azure (oriental blue) gridlined in argent an eagle displayed proper is grasping an olive branch in dexter talons and a bundle of thirteen arrows in sinister talons. Charged upon its breast is the shield of the Coat of Arms of the United States proper. All within a white designation band inscribed ON-SITE INSPECTION AGENCY at top in black letters and bearing at bottom two silver swords with gold hilts crossed at the hilts interlaced with two gold laurel branches; edged in gold.

The globe represents the worldwide importance and implications of the On-Site Inspection Agency mission. Blue represents loyalty, fidelity, and constancy. The eagle, adapted from the Great Seal of the United States, highlights the Presidential involvement and concern with far-reaching ramifications of On-Site Inspection Agency's scope and responsibilities. The swords symbolize the grave responsibility to secure world peace. The gold laurel is emblematic of excellence and accomplishment; black and white denote precision and explicit adherence to agreed precepts.
