17 years old
With parental consent, blood can be donated at age 17. Without parental consent blood can be donated at age 18. In case of specialized donations, blood can be taken at any age, however smaller quantities may be taken from a young child.

Yes, there is an age limit to give blood. You must be at least 16 years old, and if you are 16 or 17, you must get the parents' consent by having them sign a paper. People 18 years or older can give blood without parental consent.
