Who needs a car seat
In Czechia, children shorter than 150 cm and lighter than 36 kg must travel in a child seat that suits their height and weight. The rule applies to everyone driving in the country, visitors and rental cars included.
Seat belts on every seat
Everyone in the car wears a seat belt, in the front and in the back. Once a child is taller than 150 cm or heavier than 36 kg, the car’s own belt is enough.
Rear-facing seats and airbags
A rear-facing seat must never be fitted in front of an active front airbag. Put it in the back, or switch the passenger airbag off if the car allows it.
Which seats are allowed
A child seat must carry an approval label to UN regulation R129 (i-Size) or R44/04. All our Cybex seats are approved to R129.
Taxis and ride-hailing
Many taxis and ride-hailing cars have no child seat. If you plan to use them, ask in advance or bring a seat along.
