Faroe Islands
Europe · Northern Europe
Recreational spearfishing (underwater hunting) is practised and not prohibited in the Faroe Islands. There is no spearfishing-specific Faroese statute found in public sources; activity falls under the general framework for living marine resources (Act on Management of the Marine Resources, no. 161/2017) and the general rules for recreational/coastal sea fishing. Coastal and shore sea fishing is generally permitted without a permit, but local exceptions may apply. A commercial spearfishing operator (Spearfishing.fo, Tórshavn) operates legally, and the national tourism board promotes diving and spearfishing. Two general rules clearly apply to all recreational fishing: fish under 30 cm may not be kept (catch-and-release), and any fish caught must be consumed within the Faroe Islands (it may not be taken/exported home). No explicit spearfishing licensing, gear or catch-limit regime specific to underwater hunting was located, so confidence is low; divers should confirm local exceptions and protected-area boundaries before diving.

조사자 메모
The Faroe Islands is a self-governing nation within the Kingdom of Denmark with its own fisheries legislation, distinct from Denmark and the EU (it is outside the EU). No spearfishing-specific Faroese law, marine-protected-area diving ban, season, or catch-limit document was retrievable from public sources, so data_confidence is set to low. What is firmly established from official/secondary sources: (1) recreational coastal sea fishing is generally allowed without a permit; (2) spearfishing is practised and not prohibited (active commercial operator + tourism-board promotion); (3) no fish under 30 cm may be kept (catch-and-release); (4) any catch must be consumed within the Faroe Islands and may not be exported; (5) all equipment must be disinfected before arrival; (6) freshwater angling requires a local permit (named association lakes: Leynavatn, Mjóuvøtn, Saksunarvatn). The umbrella legal framework is the Act on Management of the Marine Resources (no. 161/2017), administered by the Ministry of Fisheries with enforcement by Vörn. The full verbatim Faroese statutory text was not retrieved; law_texts entries are precise English excerpts from the cited pages, with the marine-resources property clause marked translated=true. Coordinates for protected/prohibited diving zones were not found and are intentionally omitted rather than guessed. Divers should verify local exceptions and any site-specific nature-reserve or seabird-protection restrictions before spearfishing.
