No flag flies higher than the US flag according to the US flag code.

Even when the flags are flown in a foreign country?

Don't believe everything you read on FR.

11. When flags of two or more nations are displayed, they are to be flown from separate staffs of the same height. The flags should be of approximately equal size. International usage forbids the display of the flag of one nation above that of another nation in time of peace.

"international"....according to who? The UN? Or some unknown treaty? Inquiring minds want to know! :-))
