What's the drinking age in Japan and how strictly is it enforced?


Travel Info
I am embarking on a 2 week trip to Tokyo in about a month and a half with three people who are 25 or older (the oldest is 31). I am 19. I was wondering what the drinking age is in Japan and how stricty it's enforced on foreigners.

It's 20 and it's not enforced-end of story. When I taught high school kids in Japan they were out at the same clubs I was. I made them buy me a drink if I caught them!! Good times...

jolly needs to stfu. but anyways, the drinking age in japan is 20. sorry.
The drinking age is 20. I don'tthink they are very strict with foreigners.. But they are pretty strict with their own people.
you can buy alcohol through vending machines. some of these machines are setup so you can only purchase at certain times.
It is age 20, and it isnt strict, they rely on you being a good boy :D
but there are conciquences if you are cought
