Abstract： Spitsbergen Islands （Spitsbergen for short） are an important island in the Arctic region and rich in mineral resources. Norway claims sovereignty over Spitsbergen Island under the 1925 Treaty of Spitsbergen （referred to as the "Treaty"），thereby claiming sovereign rights over the continental shelf. But other parties claim that they also have resource rights on the Spitsbergen continental shelf in accordance with the principle of equality stipulated in the treaty. The Spitsbergen continental shelf dispute essentially stems from the different interpretation principles applicable to the treaty and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea （referred to as the "Convention"）. As a major energy exporter，Norway's inclusion of the Spitsbergen Continental Shelf in its planned development area will inevitably arouse doubts from other contracting parties and become another challenge after the dispute over the Spitsbergen FisheriesReserve. As a party to the treaty and an Arctic stakeholder， China enjoys rights and assumes corresponding obligations on Spitsbergen Island under the treaty. China should pay attention to the attitude of States parties towards Spitsbergen's continental shelf rights，clarify the legal basis and interpretation principles for claims of continental shelf rights under the treaty，make full use of the rights granted by treaties and conventions， and expand its legal rights and interests in the Arctic while recognizing and protecting the Arctic.

Keywords： The Treaty of Spitsbergen，The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea， Spitsbergen Islands，Continental shelf
