Recreational spearfishing (undervannsjakt) in saltwater is legal in Norway without any licence and is treated as 'sportfishing with hand-held gear' (sportsfiske med handreiskapar). Spearfishers must obey the same recreational sea-fishing rules as anglers: minimum sizes, protected and partially-protected species, the 100-metre distance from fish farms and the ban on selling catch. Lobster, anadromous salmonids (salmon and sea trout) and freshwater fish other than pike may not be taken by spear. In freshwater, spearfishing is generally prohibited except for pike, and only with the landowner's consent. Spearfishing is also caught by area/seasonal bans: cod fishing is banned year-round in the inner Oslofjord and all fishing (including while diving) is prohibited in 14 designated coastal-cod spawning areas from Lindesnes to the Swedish border from 1 January to 30 April. Rubber-powered (sling/strikk) spearguns are not regulated by the Weapons Act, but pneumatic (compressed-air) spearguns fall under the Weapons Act with an 18-year age limit and secure-storage requirements. Foreign/tourist spearfishers may only export their catch (max 18 kg, twice per year) if they have fished through a registered tourist-fishing business.

제한 사항
- Rubber-powered/sling spearguns (strikkharpun) are not regulated by the Weapons Act — no age limit, no registration, no storage requirement (treated like bow and arrow).
- Pneumatic/compressed-air spearguns (trykkharpun) fall under the Weapons Act (våpenloven): minimum age 18 and secure-storage requirements apply.
- Spearfishing is classified as 'sportfishing with hand-held gear' (sportsfiske med handreiskapar) and must use hand-held methods only.
- Artificial light is permitted for saltwater spearfishing on saltwater fish and shellfish (to see or attract fish).
- Gaffs (klepp/lyster-type spears) are prohibited in freshwater under Norwegian law.
- Persons under 16 should only use a harpoon under adult supervision after proper training.
- Spearfishing is generally practised on freediving/apnea; community sources note diving alone is discouraged. Whether SCUBA may be used for spearfishing is not clearly addressed in retrieved official sources (unknown).
Norway, unlike many EU states, does NOT prohibit night spearfishing — the EU night-spearfishing ban does not apply in Norway per the Directorate of Fisheries. SCUBA-assisted spearfishing legality was not confirmed in official sources and is left as unknown.

외국인 방문자
허용요건
- Same recreational fishing rules as residents (minimum sizes, protected species, 100 m from fish farms, no sale of catch).
- To export catch out of Norway, the angler/spearfisher must have fished while staying at a registered tourist-fishing business (turistfiskebedrift) — requirement in force since 1 January 2021.
- Pneumatic spearguns: 18-year age limit and secure storage under the Weapons Act.
제한 사항

- May not directly catch king crab (only a registered tourist company has a quota).
- Catch not exported should be eaten or given away, not discarded.
Spearfishing with knife or harpoon is treated identically to other hand-held tourist fishing ('sportsfiske med handreiskapar'); dive centres/clubs hosting foreign spearfishers must register as tourist-fishing businesses for guests to legally export catch.
거주자
No licence for saltwater recreational spearfishing; freshwater pike spearing requires landowner permission
요건
- Follow minimum sizes, protected/partially-protected species and area closures.
- Keep more than 100 m from fish farms.
- Pneumatic speargun users must be 18+ and store the gun securely (Weapons Act).
혜택
- Free saltwater fishing and spearfishing for personal use, no licence or registration.
- May use boats/own access without tourist-business registration; no export restriction for own domestic consumption.
Norwegian residents do not face the tourist-fishing export quota; the catch is for personal use and may not be sold.

허용 구역
Northern Norway archipelago noted by spearfishing community sources for excellent spearfishing and large fish (cod, pollack, wolffish). Spearfishing legal subject to national species/size rules.
Standard national rules: minimum sizes, protected species, 100 m from fish farms, no sale of catch.
Beginner-friendly stretch with gentler currents, abundant fish and good shore access per community sources. Coordinates are an approximate region centroid (low-precision stub), not a precise dive point.
Standard national rules apply; note Oslofjord cod ban does not reach this far, but coastal-cod spawning-area closures (1 Jan-30 Apr) can apply at specific sites.
금지 구역
- Inner Oslofjord (Telemark to Swedish border, inside the baseline)fishing-restriction zone (coastal cod protection)
Cod may not be taken anywhere in the Oslofjord year-round; from January 2026 three large areas of the Oslofjord are fully closed to all fishing. Spearfishing is subject to these bans.
- Coastal cod spawning areas (Lindesnes to Swedish border) — 14 designated areasseasonal spawning protection area
All fishing, including while diving/spearfishing, is prohibited from 1 January to 30 April in 14 designated cod spawning areas along the Skagerrak coast and Oslofjord. Coordinates are an approximate region centroid (low-precision stub) spanning multiple discrete areas, not a precise point.
- Saltstraumen marine protected area (stonebiter/wolffish protection)marine protected area
Catch of stonebiter (steinbit/wolffish) prohibited in the Saltstraumen marine protected area since 26 August 2024 under 'Forskrift om forbud mot fangst av steinbit i Saltstraumen marine verneområde'.

조사자 메모
Spearfishing is legal and culturally established in Norway (it has a Store norske leksikon entry and an active diving-federation community), but it is 'restricted' rather than freely 'yes' because it inherits the full recreational sea-fishing rule set plus several spearfishing-relevant area/species bans. Key points: (1) Lobster, salmon/sea trout and freshwater fish (except pike) may not be speared. (2) Cod is banned year-round in the Oslofjord; all fishing including diving is banned 1 Jan-30 Apr in 14 coastal-cod spawning areas (Lindesnes to Swedish border). Note a documented source conflict: an earlier Statsforvalteren consultation page stated 'Undervannsjakt i gytefeltene vil være tillatt siden dette er helt selektivt' (spearfishing in spawning grounds would be allowed as fully selective), but the current Fiskeridirektoratet guidance explicitly states 'Forbudet gjelder også ved dykking' (the ban also applies while diving). The Directorate's current position (ban applies to diving) is treated as authoritative. (3) Pneumatic spearguns are regulated under the Weapons Act (18+, secure storage); rubber spearguns are not. (4) Night spearfishing is NOT banned in Norway (unlike the EU rule). (5) Foreigners are allowed but face an 18 kg export limit (twice/year) only via a registered tourist-fishing business. The minimum sizes in catch_limits are the general minstemål from høstingsforskriften § 47; recreational fishers have exemptions (no minimum for sei, makrell, brosme, steinbit, lyr if not sold). The § 47 verbatim_text in law_texts is a faithful excerpt of the Lovdata § 47 numbered list (opening sentence 'Det er forbudt å fiske fisk mindre enn:' followed by the original item numbers/sub-letters for the relevant species), with omitted unrelated species marked '[...]'; the cited Lovdata anchor has been corrected to %C2%A747 (§ 47). SCUBA-assisted spearfishing legality was not confirmed in official sources and is left unknown. Data confidence overall: high for legal status, species bans, equipment-law and foreigner rules; lowered to medium because the § 47 excerpt is a partial (not full) reproduction, two map zones use approximate region centroids, and a documented source conflict remains on spawning-ground diving.
