Child car seats, infant carriers designed for vehicle use, and booster seats are classified under 9401.80 as 'other seats.' They are not classified with safety equipment (Chapter 63) or with vehicles (Chapter 87). The seat function determines classification. ISOFIX bases and accessories sold separately may be classified differently.
