Many moons ago I used to use OpenLDAP with Chinese, 
Japanese, and Korean data. All data in LDAP is in the UTF-8 
character set. The server works fine, though sometimes 
directory administration tools don't understand character sets. 
At that time I had to write a lot of my own tools, but things should
be better now. 

I would not expect any problems. If you need to get Japanese
data into UTF-8 format, e.g. in an LDIF load file, you can use
the iconv utility.
