I am confussed myself regarding Thailand, I emailed a couple of sport fishing charters one said Spearfishing was totally illegal in all Thai waters, he was quite adament about that although he did comment that many locals spearfish regardless, while another charter operator said it was legal if freediving not on scuba.

I don’t really know how to find out for sure as I can’t read the Thai websites. I know it is legal in Indonesia, I could always go there but I suspect it is not as safe and friendly at the moment especially for someone from Australia.
