Afghanistan

Asia · Southern Asia

Afghanistan is landlocked, so no marine spearfishing exists. There is no dedicated fisheries or fishing statute and no spearfishing-specific regulation. Inland (freshwater) fishing in rivers, streams and lakes is largely informal and unregulated; the only relevant national legal instrument is the Environment Law (2007), whose Chapter Six (Articles 47-49) regulates the taking of wild species through harvestable/protected species lists and permits. Destructive fishing methods (dynamite/explosives and electrofishing) are illegal in practice and are explicitly banned in Band-e-Amir National Park. No source addresses recreational spearfishing or speargun use, so its legality is genuinely unknown; in practice it is not regulated as a distinct activity.

Peralatan & teknik

Peraturan peralatan

Peralatan apa yang dibenarkan, cara ia boleh digunakan, dan syarat yang dilampirkan.

Sekatan

  • Dynamite/explosive fishing is illegal (documented as a practice since the 1980s but now unlawful)
  • Electric-shock (electrofishing) and grenade/explosive fishing are banned in Band-e-Amir National Park

No rule specifically addresses spearguns, harpoons or recreational spearfishing. Equipment legality for spearfishing is genuinely unknown; the only documented gear prohibitions concern destructive methods (explosives, electrofishing).

Apa yang boleh diambil

Had tangkapan & spesies dilindungi

Kuota harian, saiz minimum, dan spesies yang tidak boleh diambil sama sekali.

No fishing-specific catch or size limits were found. Protected-species lists are maintained by NEPA under the Environment Law (2007); taking listed protected species is prohibited except under permit. The first national protected-species list (2009) covered mammals, birds, plants, an amphibian (Paghman salamander) and an insect, but no commercially fished freshwater fish were highlighted in the sources reviewed.

Siapa yang boleh memancing

Pelawat & pemastautin

Bagaimana peraturan berbeza untuk pelawat asing dan pemastautin tempatan.

Pelawat asing

No rules specific to foreign anglers or spearfishers were found. General security conditions and lack of tourism infrastructure make recreational underwater fishing by foreigners impractical.

Pemastautin

No resident-specific fishing or spearfishing licensing framework was found. Inland subsistence fishing is largely informal and unregulated.

Kawasan dilarang

  • Afghanistan's first national park (established 22 May 2009), a series of intensely blue lakes in Bamyan Province. Destructive fishing in the park lakes - using hand grenades/explosives and electric shocking devices - has been banned by the park administration after such methods nearly eliminated fish stocks. No legally authorised recreational fishing or spearfishing regime is documented.

Nota penyelidik

Afghanistan is landlocked (no sea coastline), so marine spearfishing does not apply. Research found NO dedicated national fisheries or fishing statute and NO spearfishing-specific regulation. A FAOLEX 'Fisheries Law' record (LEX-FAOC040534) initially surfaced in searches but was verified to be Vietnam's 2003 Fisheries Law, not Afghanistan's - it is deliberately excluded. The only applicable national instrument is the Environment Law (2007), Chapter Six, Articles 47-49, which governs taking of wild species via harvestable/protected lists and permits administered by NEPA. The verbatim_text entries for Articles 47-49 reproduce only the portions presented as quoted statutory text on the cited afghan-web.com page; explanatory prose on that page (e.g. the permits/management-status sentence after Article 48 and the captive-breeding/artificial-propagation/scientific-purposes list after Article 49) is paraphrase, not verbatim law, and is deliberately excluded from the quotes. The verbatim entries are an English-language rendering of the law (originally enacted in Dari/Pashto), hence translated:true. Destructive fishing (dynamite/explosives, electrofishing) is illegal in practice and explicitly banned in Band-e-Amir National Park. No verbatim primary-source text could be retrieved for any fishing-method or spearfishing prohibition specific to inland recreational fishing; FAOLEX and several PDFs returned 403/binary and could not be parsed. data_confidence is set to 'low' and spearfishing_allowed to 'unknown' because no source confirms or denies the legality of recreational spearfishing as a distinct activity. last_updated reflects the research date; the underlying legal framework dates to 2007-2009.
