Are car seats actually required in the UAE?

The first ride home is the one parents improvise, and it is the one that matters. Fit a seat that matches the baby’s current weight before discharge. Rear-facing for a newborn is the manufacturers’ instruction, which is the instruction worth following while you confirm the legal cutoff.

If you buy secondhand from a family that is leaving, reject any seat with a crack, a missing base, or an expiry date moulded into the shell that has passed. A cheap new seat beats a luxury one that has been in a shunt.
