Car seat safety checklist
- Confirm the seat has never been in a moderate-to-severe collision — even invisible damage compromises the shell.
- Check the expiry date on the seat — most manufacturers set a lifespan of 6 to 10 years from production.
- Verify the seat carries the ECE R129 (i-Size) or ECE R44/04 label, which is required to use a car seat legally in the Netherlands.
- Ask whether the harness, cover and ISOFIX base are originals and have not been washed with strong detergents that weaken straps.

Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to buy a second-hand car seat?
Yes, provided you can verify the seat's history. Buy from a seller who can confirm the seat was never in an accident, who can show the expiry date on the shell, and who includes the original manual and ISOFIX base where applicable. If any of those are missing, choose a different listing.
What's the difference between i-Size and Group 0/1/2/3?
i-Size (ECE R129) is the newer EU standard based on the child's height; Group 0+/1/2/3 (ECE R44/04) is the older standard based on weight. Both are legal in the Netherlands, but i-Size is generally safer because it requires rearward-facing travel for longer and includes side-impact testing.
Do I need an ISOFIX base?
Not strictly — most infant carriers can also be installed with a regular seatbelt — but an ISOFIX base makes installation faster and reduces the chance of fitting it incorrectly. If the listing includes the matching base, that's a real bonus.
