EMA business hours over Ascension Day holidays, 14 and 15 May

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) will be closed for a holiday weekend from the evening of May 13 through the morning of May 18, 2026. However, there is still an emergency hotline available if patients need urgent help with medicines during this time.

WHY IT MATTERSIf you're in Europe and need emergency support for a medication during the Ascension Day holiday, you can still reach the EMA's product emergency hotline instead of waiting for the office to reopen.
