  Flavour symmetries in the dark sector are a theoretically motivated and
phenomenologically appealing concept. The dark matter particle can be
stabilised with the help of flavour symmetries, without the need to introduce
an additional discrete symmetry by hand. Apart from the usual searches in
direct and indirect detection experiments and high energy colliders, flavoured
dark matter generally also gives rise to new flavour violating interactions
leading to interesting signatures in rare meson decays. This proceedings
article reviews a simplified model of flavoured dark matter in which the dark
matter coupling to quarks constitutes a new source of flavour violation, so
that the model goes beyond Minimal Flavour Violation. Particular emphasis is
put on the discussion of its phenomenological implications in flavour, collider
and direct detection experiments.
