At what age ca you purchase alcohol in a bar in portugal? |
Travel Info At what age ca you purchase alcohol in a bar in portugal? Travel Tips I'm Portuguese, so I should know. When I was back in Portugal (until 3 years ago) the age to drink was 16, the lowest in the EU. I rarely drank when I went out, but I do know we are not very strict on asking for ID, which I think is wrong. Same about smoking, not buying cigarettes, if you were caught smoking under 16 you would be taken to the police station although I've never met anyone to whom this actually happened. If they haven't changed it, it still should be 16. I just read some of the answers, it is not 14 or 15 hu hu. My doubt was if they had changed it to 18, I know some politicians have been battling on this for years. Others 15 is the Drinking age and Purchase age. not a dead cert, but pretty sure its 14 If you are cute you can get some else to buy alcohol and take it out to the beach for you. 18 I think is the real age. Maybe you should ask someone in Portugal ? =] Or look up the laws for Portugal ? I don't know I would imagine close to the age in the USA which is 21 i think. 15 but when your british they tend not to even ask your age 16 People suffering from mental illness or already extremely inebriated cannot purchase or obtain alcoholic beverages. People under 16 can drink if parents allow |
