If a person has AB type blood then they can receive any type of blood. A extra factor you have to take into account is whether they are AB positive or AB negative. An AB+ person can take any blood while an AB- person can take any blood as long as its negative. For a chart showing the blood type compatibility see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_types#Red_blood_cell_compatibility
