I'm going to italy with school and by the time we leave I will be 16. I was wondering what the drinking age limits were in italy for bars and small shops. Also I want to get a tattoo while im over there I was wondering the age limit and if I need permission would a signed sheet do. Some areas I'll be in are serento and Pompeii. Dunno all the places. If you know any places that are good places. Leave them ina comment.

As 16 you can drink alcohols and buy cigarettes legally. You can also get the tatoos you want without any permission :-)

In Italy there isn't a drinking age, but you can be served alcoholic drinks in public places only if you're at least16; in some places, local administrations set some stricter rules, generally saying you have to be 16 in order to buy alcoholic drinks, as well (in a couple of place it seems the limit for buying strong liquor is 18), and you can't drink in public places if you're below 16 (like in Milan); about tattoos, if you're below 18 you need your your parents permit. Anyway, be careful not to get drunk, if you don't want to be identified as American or English...

Inside bars you can go at any age, for order drink you have to be 16. Tattoo you have to be 18.

The drinking age limit is 16, so you can legally buy alcoholic drinks at least in supermarkets. The legal age for tattoos is 18, but you can get a tattoo with the permission of your parents... but I think your parents should be there, so I don't think you can get it.
