Type O blood can donate to everyone because it lacks A and B antigens on the surface of its red blood cells, making it universally acceptable for transfusions. However, individuals with O blood can only receive type O blood because their plasma contains anti-A and anti-B antibodies that would react against A and B antigens found in other blood types. The Rh factor further complicates compatibility; Rh-negative individuals can only receive Rh-negative blood, while Rh-positive individuals can receive both Rh-positive and Rh-negative blood.

A person with Type O can donate to any other blood type, but can only receive blood from another Type O person. A person having blood group O (with absence of Rh-factor) only can donate his blood to any other individual. Rh or Antigen-D is a factor which decides the positivity or negativity of the blood, so the blood group O-negative is considered the universal donor, as it does not effect any of other blood groups.
