A urinary catheter assembly comprises: a urinary catheter, a tubular case and a sleeve fixedly arranged over at least a part of a non-insertable section of the urinary catheter. The sleeve includes two oppositely arranged openings and a body extending between the opening. In a first position, a storage position, the tubular case is arranged to enclose the insertable section of the urinary catheter and is removably connected to the sleeve and/or to the non-insertable section of the urinary catheter. The body portion of the sleeve is provided with a first engagement member, and the tubular case is provided with a second engagement member, thereby enabling the tubular case, when removed from the non-insertable part of the urinary catheter, to be releasably connected to the sleeve in a second disposition, the second disposition being different from the first disposition. A method for producing a urinary catheter assembly is also disclosed.
