Europe · Eastern Europe

Recreational spearfishing (подводная охота) is legal in Russia and is treated as a method of recreational/amateur fishing (любительское рыболовство). On water bodies of common use citizens may fish freely and free of charge, without a license or permit. However, spearfishing is subject to method restrictions set by Federal Law No. 475-FZ of 25.12.2018 'On Amateur Fishing': it is PROHIBITED to spearfish (a) in places of mass public recreation, (b) using individual electronic devices for detecting aquatic biological resources underwater (e.g. fish-finders), (c) using scuba/aqualungs and other autonomous breathing apparatus, and (d) using spearfishing gear above the surface of the water. In addition, region-specific Fishing Rules (Правила рыболовства) for each of the 8 federal fishery basins impose closed seasons (e.g. underwater hunting banned on inland waters in the Azov-Black Sea basin from 15 November to 31 March), daily catch limits (e.g. 5 kg/day in the Azov-Black Sea basin), minimum legal sizes and protected-species lists. Sturgeon and Red Book species are fully protected. Foreigners may spearfish under the same general rules.

  • SaradoUnderwater hunting (подводная охота) on inland water bodies of the Azov-Black Sea fishery basinNob 15 – Mar 31

    In the Azov-Black Sea fishery basin, underwater hunting (подводная охота) on inland water bodies (внутренние водные объекты) is prohibited from 15 November to 31 March. Established by the Fishing Rules for the Azov-Black Sea fishery basin (Order of the Ministry of Agriculture No. 1 of 09.01.2020). Closed/spawning-season periods differ between the 8 federal fishery basins; each basin's Fishing Rules must be checked for the relevant region.

  • LimitadoSpawning periods (нерестовый запрет) across fishery basins

    Each of the 8 federal fishery basins sets its own spawning-season restrictions in its Fishing Rules. During declared spawning periods amateur fishing, including spearfishing, is restricted or prohibited on specified water bodies. Exact dates vary by basin and region and are updated annually by the territorial fishery basin administrations.

SpeargunPinahintulutan
ScubaIpinagbabawal

Mga Paghihigpit

  • Scuba gear and other autonomous breathing apparatus (акваланги и другие автономные дыхательные аппараты) are prohibited for spearfishing — breath-hold (freediving) only.
  • Individual electronic devices for detecting aquatic biological resources underwater (fish-finders/echo sounders) are prohibited.
  • Use of underwater extraction gear above the surface of the water is prohibited.
  • Spearfishing prohibited in places of mass public recreation.

Spearguns and underwater hunting rifles (специальные подводные ружья и пистолеты) are the legal gear for подводная охота. Spearfishing is a breath-hold activity in Russia; any form of compressed-air/autonomous breathing apparatus makes it illegal (treated as poaching).

Ano ang maaaring kunin

Mga limitasyon sa huli at mga protektadong isda

Mga araw-araw na quota, pinakamaliit na sukat, at mga isdang hindi dapat kunin.

Araw-araw na limitasyon

Set per fishery basin by the Fishing Rules. Example: in the Azov-Black Sea fishery basin the total daily catch (вылов) for all aquatic biological resources is no more than 5 kg, or 1 specimen if it weighs more than 5 kg.

Mga protektadong isda — huwag kunin

  • ProtektadoSturgeon species (осетровые виды рыб)
  • ProtektadoSpecies listed in the Red Book of the Russian Federation (виды, занесенные в Красную книгу Российской Федерации)
  • ProtektadoShemaya (шемая) - in the Azov-Black Sea basin
  • ProtektadoEgg-/larvae-bearing female freshwater crayfish (самки рака пресноводного, вынашивающие икру и личинок) - in the Azov-Black Sea basin

Minimum legal sizes (промысловый размер) and species-specific daily limits are defined separately in each basin's Fishing Rules and must be checked per region. Daily limits and protected-species examples here are from the Azov-Black Sea fishery basin Rules (Order of the Ministry of Agriculture No. 1 of 09.01.2020).

Mga bisita at residente

Kung paano naiiba ang mga patakaran para sa mga dayuhang bisita at lokal na residente.

Mga dayuhang bisita

Pinahintulutan

Mga Kinakailangan

  • Follow the same Federal Law 475-FZ method restrictions and the regional Fishing Rules as Russian citizens.

Mga Paghihigpit

  • Access restrictions apply in border zones (пограничная зона) and on lands of defence and security; a border-zone permit may be required to fish in those areas.
  • Specially protected natural territories and military zones may be off-limits.

Federal Law 475-FZ frames the free-and-without-charge right around citizens of the Russian Federation; in practice amateur fishing on public waters is open to all, but foreigners should verify border-zone (FSB pogranzona) access rules near coasts and frontier waters.

Mga residente

No license required for amateur fishing on public water bodies

Mga Kinakailangan

  • Comply with Federal Law 475-FZ restrictions and the applicable basin Fishing Rules (closed seasons, daily limits, minimum sizes, protected species).

Mga Benepisyo

  • Fishing freely and free of charge on water bodies of common use.

Indigenous peoples of the North, Siberia and the Far East have separate subsistence-fishing rules; these are outside the recreational amateur-fishing regime.

Mga tala ng mananaliksik

Spearfishing in Russia is legal as breath-hold underwater hunting and is regulated as a method of amateur fishing under Federal Law 475-FZ (in force 01.01.2020). The four federal method prohibitions (Article 7 part 1 clause 4) are quoted verbatim from ConsultantPlus. Russia has 8 federal fishery basins, each with its own Fishing Rules (Правила рыболовства) issued by the Ministry of Agriculture; closed seasons, daily catch limits, minimum legal sizes and protected-species lists vary by basin and must be checked for the specific region. Concrete season/catch-limit figures captured here (Azov-Black Sea: underwater hunting banned on inland waters 15 Nov-31 Mar; 5 kg/day; sturgeon, shemaya and Red Book species protected) are sourced from the Azov-Black Sea basin Rules (Order No. 1 of 09.01.2020) and are illustrative of the basin model, not nationwide constants. The cntd.ru basin-rules page and the fish.gov.ru PDF could not be fully rendered by the fetch tool (timeout/large PDF), so the specific Azov-Black Sea dates and the 5 kg limit are corroborated via web-search summaries of those official documents rather than a verbatim fetch; size_limits[] left empty because exact per-species cm values were not retrieved verbatim. License: no license/permit is required for general amateur/spearfishing on public water bodies. data_confidence=high for the federal-law prohibitions (verbatim from official source); medium for the region-specific Azov-Black Sea figures.
