When are the blood transfusion institutes open for donors?
The three institutes take blood donors every working day from 7:00 to 19:00. Saturdays differ from one to the next, and a drive in the field has hours of its own, on the weekly schedule.
The hours
- **ITKS, Svetog Save 39, Belgrade:** working days 7:00 to 19:00, Saturdays 8:00 to 15:00.
- **ZTKV, Hajduk Veljkova 11, Novi Sad:** working days 7:00 to 19:00, and the first Saturday of the month 8:00 to 12:00.
- **ZTK Niš, Bulevar dr Zorana Đinđića 48, Niš:** working days 7:00 to 19:00, Saturdays 7:00 to 14:00.
These are the hours for donors. Each institute keeps other hours for patients and for its laboratory, which are not the ones above.
In other towns
The transfusion services of some hospitals in other towns take donors on working days too, each at its own hours. The permanent places are in the guide and on their town's page, with the hours the service gave.
Drives in the field
A drive in a hall, a school, a shopping centre or a bus has its own day and hours, and they are on the Next 7 days screen. The institutes' opening hours do not apply to them: see what the transfusion bus is.
Before you go
The institutes change their hours now and then, so look at the service's own page, linked below, before a longer trip. Take your identity document with you: what to bring.
