An assembly (100) for wetting a medical device (101) is provided. The assembly (100) comprises a compartment (120) for the fluid medium and a package (110) for a medical device (101). The fluid medium in the compartment (120) may be used for wetting a hydrophilic coating disposed at an outer surface of the medical device (101. The compartment (120) comprises an outlet (140) and the package (110) comprises an inlet (130) for the fluid medium. Prior to use, when the assembly (100) is in a storage-position, a gap between the outlet (140) and inlet (130) may be present. The outlet (140) and inlet (130) may both be closed by a barrier film (160) preventing contamination of the outlet (140) and inlet (130) prior to use. When the assembly (100) is to be used, the barrier film (160) is removed thereby opening the outlet (140) and inlet (130). The removal of the barrier film (160) may be connected to the opening of the package (110) such that the package (110) is opened as the barrier film (160) is removed. A blocking device (170) for closing the gap between the outlet (140) and inlet (130) at least in the use-position, is provided.
