Chad
Africa · Middle Africa
Chad is a landlocked Sahelian country with no sea coastline; all fishing is inland (freshwater), mainly on Lake Chad and the Chari and Logone rivers. There is no specific legal regime for recreational underwater spearfishing (chasse sous-marine / pêche au harpon). Fishing is governed by Loi nº 014/PR/2008 du 10 juin 2008 portant régime des forêts, de la faune et des ressources halieutiques (a general framework whose full implementing texts for fisheries are still awaited), supported by the environment framework law (Loi 014/PR/98) and the water code (Loi 016/PR/99). National fisheries regulation permits only artisanal gear (beach seines 'tarou', longlines/palangres, traps/nasses, cast nets/épervier, gill nets) subject to minimum mesh sizes, and it explicitly prohibits destructive fishing methods including firearms ('armes à feu'), explosives, electric devices and toxic/polluting products (except for scientific research). Because firearms and similar devices are banned and no provision authorises underwater spearguns/harpoons, recreational spearfishing has no legal basis and is best treated as not permitted / heavily restricted. A fishing permit is required (Category A for nationals, Category B for foreigners).

Oprema i tehnika
Pravila o opremi
Koja je oprema dozvoljena, kako se može koristiti i koji su uvjeti.
Ograničenja
- Destructive fishing methods are prohibited: firearms ('armes à feu'), explosives, electric devices ('appareillage électrique') and toxic/polluting products, except for scientific research.
- Minimum net mesh sizes apply: 35 mm and above for Alestes; 55-85 mm for large fish; 90-120 mm for Lates niloticus (Nile perch).
- Permitted artisanal gear described in national practice: beach seine (tarou), longlines (palangres), traps (nasses/goura), cast net (épervier), drifting/set gill nets.
No legal provision authorises underwater spearguns or harpoons (chasse sous-marine / pêche au harpon). Spearguns are treated here as not permitted because firearms and similar devices are explicitly listed among prohibited destructive methods and the recognised fishing gear is limited to artisanal nets, lines and traps. Scuba use for fishing is not addressed in available sources.

Dnevno ograničenje
unknown
No recreational daily bag limit or per-species minimum landing size for spearfishing was found in available sources. Indirect size control is exercised through minimum net mesh sizes (35 mm+ for Alestes; 55-85 mm for large fish; 90-120 mm for Lates niloticus). Detailed protected-species lists would fall under the implementing texts of Loi 014/PR/2008, which were reported as still awaited for the fisheries sector.
Ko može ribariti
Posjetitelji i rezidenti
Kako se pravila razlikuju za strane posjetitelje i lokalne rezidente.
Strani posjetitelji
DozvoljenoPotrebna posebna licenca
Zahtjevi
- Foreigners who fish must hold a Category B fishing permit (reported value 75,000 FCFA), substantially more expensive than the Category A permit reserved for nationals.
Ograničenja
- Same gear and method prohibitions apply (no firearms, explosives, electric devices or toxic products; mesh-size limits).
- No legal framework exists for recreational underwater spearfishing for either nationals or foreigners.
Rules are framed for commercial/artisanal fishing, not recreational diving. A foreigner wishing to fish legally must obtain the Category B permit from the fisheries administration.
Rezidenti
Permis de pêche Catégorie A (national/resident fishing permit, reported value 12,500 FCFA)
Zahtjevi
- Hold a Category A fishing permit issued by the fisheries administration.
- Comply with prohibited-method and mesh-size rules.
Prednosti
- Lower permit cost (12,500 FCFA) than the foreigner Category B permit (75,000 FCFA).
Customary/traditional management systems also regulate access to fisheries locally, especially on Lake Chad. Spearfishing is not provided for as a recreational activity.

Principal inland fishery, shared international waters managed under the Lake Chad Basin Commission (CBLT/LCBC) common regulation on wildlife and flora (1977). Only artisanal gear is permitted; destructive methods (firearms, explosives, electric devices, toxic products) are prohibited, which excludes spearfishing-type methods. There is no recreational spearfishing regime.

Napomene istraživača
Chad is landlocked (coastline=false); there is no marine spearfishing. All fishing is freshwater (Lake Chad, Chari and Logone rivers). No statute or regulation addresses recreational underwater spearfishing (chasse sous-marine / pêche au harpon). The governing instrument is Loi nº 014/PR/2008 (forests, wildlife and fisheries resources), described by FAO as a general framework whose fisheries implementing texts are still awaited. The verbatim French excerpts in law_texts are taken from an FAO/SFLP government-commissioned report and an official ministry arrêté (FAOLEX), not from the full body of Loi 014/PR/2008 itself: the FAOLEX/ECOLEX detail pages for that law returned HTTP 403/404 and the integral article text could not be retrieved, so no primary-law article text has been fabricated. spearfishing_allowed is set to 'restricted' (effectively not permitted) because (a) firearms and similar devices are explicitly prohibited fishing methods, (b) recognised legal gear is limited to artisanal nets, lines and traps, and (c) no provision authorises spearguns/harpoons. Permit costs (12,500 / 75,000 FCFA) are as reported by FAO in 2005 and may have changed. data_confidence=medium: multiple authoritative FAO and Chadian government sources corroborate the framework, but the full verbatim primary law text was not retrievable.
