Kyrgyzstan
Asia · Central Asia
Kyrgyzstan is landlocked, so all spearfishing is freshwater (lakes, reservoirs and rivers). Underwater hunting with spearguns is explicitly LEGAL for recreational/amateur and sport fishing: the Rules of Amateur and Sport Fishing permitted 'ружья для подводной охоты' (spearguns) outside designated public recreation zones (point 9), and the general ban on firearms/pneumatic weapons explicitly excepts 'ружей и пистолетов для подводной охоты' (spearguns and underwater pistols) (point 16(1)). However it is restricted: it requires paid fishing tickets/permits (point 4) or a путёвка issued by the water-body user (point 5); it is closed during species-specific spawning seasons; it is banned in protected/closed zones; and a list of protected species (Issyk-Kul trout, Issyk-Kul bare osman, pike-asp, Turkestan barbel, whitefish, peled) may never be taken. Note: the 2015 Rules (Government Decree No. 410) and the 1997 Law 'On Fisheries' were repealed in 2025 by Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 237 of 25 April 2025 as part of a fisheries-law overhaul; the umbrella framework is now Law No. 35 of 17 March 2021 'On aquaculture, fisheries and protection of aquatic biological resources'. The post-April-2025 replacement Rules were not retrievable at the time of research, so the verbatim provisions captured here are from the last published (25.04.2025) edition of the 2015 Rules; substantive treatment of spearguns has been consistent historically but the current edition should be re-verified.

Судлаачийн тэмдэглэл
Kyrgyzstan is landlocked (no sea coast); all spearfishing is freshwater (Lake Issyk-Kul, Son-Kul, Toktogul and other reservoirs, and rivers such as Naryn, Chu). Spearfishing (подводная охота) with spearguns is explicitly LEGAL but RESTRICTED for amateur/sport fishing: permitted only outside public recreation zones (point 9) and expressly excepted from the firearms/pneumatic-weapons ban (point 16(1)); a paid fishing ticket/permit is required, spawning closures apply, certain Issyk-Kul sites are closed, and six species (Issyk-Kul trout, Issyk-Kul bare osman, pike-asp, Turkestan barbel, whitefish, peled) are permanently protected. IMPORTANT CURRENCY CAVEAT: the verbatim provisions captured here are from the last published edition (25.04.2025) of the 2015 Rules, which were repealed by Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 237 of 25 April 2025 as part of a 2025 fisheries-law overhaul (the 1997 Fisheries Law and 2015 decree were both repealed; the umbrella law is now Law No. 35 of 2021). The post-April-2025 replacement Rules could not be retrieved from the Ministry of Justice CBD at research time because the portal renders only via a JavaScript SPA / OpenData API; the verbatim text was obtained through the official OpenData API (GetDocument.json?Code=97696). Cost/validity of permits and explicit foreigner rules were not found in official text and are marked unknown. Data confidence: medium - legal text is verbatim from the official source, but it reflects a just-repealed edition and the live replacement was not confirmed. License cost, foreigner-specific rules and exact coordinates of recreation/closed zones should be re-verified against the current (post-237/2025) Rules.
