On March 1, 1961, the act changed the names of the classes and set the name to the Order of Partisan Star to 1st class, 2nd class and 3rd class. All classes continued to be awarded to officers of the Yugoslav People's Army for successful command of units of the armed forces, for skill in conducting combat operations and for showing special courage in fighting the enemy. It could be awarded to both citizens of Yugoslavia and foreign nationals.[2]

Award description
The Order of the Partisan Star's badge is made of silver, which is gilded in the case of 1st class. The badge of the order of the 1st class has the shape of a red enamelled five-pointed star placed on a golden laurel wreath. The star is gold lined. In the case of 2nd class, the order is with a wreath and silver edging. In the 3rd clas, the star is not placed on a wreath but lies on crossed rifles. Rifles and edging are silver in this case.[5]
The order was originally granted without a ribbon. In order for the order to be worn according to general customs with other decorations, a ribbon was established in 1961. It is red in the case of 1st class. In 2nd class, the ribbon is red with two yellow stripes. In 3rd class, the ribbon is red with four yellow stripes.[5]
The authors of the design were painter Đorđe Andrejević-Kun and sculptor Antun Augustinčić. The first specimens were made at the Moscow Mint. After the war, they were first produced at the workshop of the Knaus Brothers in Zagreb, and later at the Orešković Marko mint in Zagreb.[6]
