Jordan
Asia · Western Asia
Jordan has a single short coastline (~27 km) on the Gulf of Aqaba (Red Sea), administered by the Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority (ASEZA). Recreational/amateur fishing from shore and by tourist boats is prohibited, and spearfishing (harpoon hunting by divers) is not permitted along the Aqaba coast. Fishing of all resident species is governed by Instructions No. (Z/1) of 2020 on the regulation of fishing of fish and aquatic life in the Gulf of Aqaba, which lists permitted gear (bait nets, lines and hooks) and bans metal traps (sakhawi) and gill nets (shawarat); spearguns/harpoons are not among the permitted gear. The Aqaba Marine Reserve (Jordan's first marine protected area) bans fishing in all forms within its boundaries. A four-month total closed season (1 January to 30 April) applies each year. There is no marine spearfishing fishery and no recognised recreational spearfishing regime; the dead Sea and inland freshwater bodies have no spearfishing provision either.

ໝາຍເຫດຂອງນັກວິໄຈ
Jordan's only marine coast is ~27 km on the Gulf of Aqaba (Red Sea), governed by ASEZA. No recreational spearfishing regime exists: amateur/visitor shore fishing and tourist/glass-bottom-boat fishing are banned, harpoon hunting by divers is not a permitted method, and all fishing is banned inside the Aqaba Marine Reserve. The primary instrument is Instructions No. (Z/1) of 2020 (Official Gazette, April 2020), issued under the Agriculture Law and replacing Instructions No. (G/5) of 2006; an annual 1 Jan - 30 Apr total closure applies (in force for 2026, the 4th consecutive year). Verbatim Arabic provisions on banned gear (metal traps 'sakhawi', gill nets 'shawarat'), the shore/tourist-boat fishing ban, and the closure were captured from the official ASEZA announcement. The full article-by-article text of Instructions No. (Z/1) (e.g. an explicit named spearfishing prohibition) is paywalled on the Qistas legal database; only the title, definitions (Article 2) and committee article (Article 3) were publicly retrievable, so the 'no spearfishing' conclusion rests on (a) only lines/hooks/bait-nets being permitted gear, (b) the total amateur/shore fishing ban, (c) the all-forms fishing ban in the marine reserve, and (d) dive-operator confirmation - rather than on a single verbatim 'spearfishing prohibited' clause. data_confidence set to medium for this reason. Freshwater/inland (e.g. Dead Sea, dams) has no spearfishing provision and no fishery of relevance. Numeric bag/size limits and licence cost were not retrievable from official sources and are marked unknown.
