Serbia

Europe · Southern Europe

Serbia is a landlocked country with no sea coast, so all fishing is freshwater (rivers, lakes, reservoirs). Spearfishing / underwater fishing is explicitly prohibited. The Law on Protection and Sustainable Use of Fish Stocks (Official Gazette RS No. 128/2014 and 95/2018), in Article 22(1)(3), bans catching fish with harpoons (harpun), spears (osti), underwater guns / spearguns (podvodna puška), explosives and other prohibited means. Recreational fishing is legally defined (Article 2, point 21) as a non-commercial activity using only rod-and-line tackle and auxiliary net tools. There is therefore no legal route to recreational spearfishing in Serbia, and no spearfishing licence exists. A standard recreational fishing permit is required for ordinary angling but does not authorise spearfishing.

Tutkijan huomiot

Serbia is landlocked (coastline=false); all fishing is freshwater. Spearfishing is unambiguously illegal: Article 22(1)(3) of the Law on Protection and Sustainable Use of Fish Stocks (Sl. glasnik RS 128/2014, 95/2018) lists harpoons (harpun), spears (osti) and underwater guns (podvodna puška) among prohibited catching means, and Article 2(21) restricts recreational fishing to rod-and-line and auxiliary net tools. Verbatim Serbian legal text was retrieved from the Paragraf legal database (paragraf.rs), a long-established Serbian legal publisher carrying consolidated statute text; the official government portals (pravno-informacioni-sistem.rs and government PDFs) host the same law but their pages are JS-rendered or stored as compressed PDFs that could not be text-extracted via automated fetch, so they are listed as corroborating sources. data_confidence=high because the operative prohibition is short, explicit, and consistently reproduced across independent fetches. No marine/coastal data applies. License 'required' set to null because no spearfishing licence exists (the field would be misleading as true/false for an activity that is outright banned).
