In many countries, people don't eat their eggs raw because there is a high chance that the eggs are contaminated with salmonella, which can cause food poisoning.

In Japan, however, there is a culture in which not only eggs but various other foods are eaten raw (such as sushi/sashimi). In order to protect this food culture, there is a world-class hygiene management system in place.

First of all, from the stage of hatching, the chicks are fed only highly safe diets specified by law. Next, eggs are washed, inspected, and sorted following strict quality standards before being packaged in containers with little or no human contact and sold in stores under complete hygiene control. Without this multi-step process, eggs in Japan cannot make it on the store shelves.

I myself grew up eating my favorite “raw egg on rice” almost everyday since I was a child, but I have never had any food poisoning before. Japanese eggs also have a "best-before" date and it is dangerous to eat them raw if they are past that date.
