Complete Guide to Our Approved Child Seats (i-Size & EU Certified)
Under Spanish traffic regulations (DGT), all children measuring under 135 cm must travel in an approved child restraint system appropriate for their height and weight. We strictly provide officially certified European models (ECE R44/04 and UN R129 i-Size):
Group 0+ / Infant Carrier (0–13 kg / Birth to ~12-15 Months)
Designed for newborns and infants. These seats are strictly installed in the rear-facing position (contramarcha) with integrated 3-point or 5-point safety harnesses and side-impact protection to safeguard your baby’s delicate neck and spine.
Group 0+ Infant seat with newborn support cushion.
Group 1 / Baby Seat (9–18 kg / ~9 Months to 4 Years)
Versatile seats featuring reclined positions for sleeping toddlers. In accordance with safety recommendations, we prioritize rear-facing installation for younger children up to 105 cm, with forward-facing configurations available for older toddlers who meet height and muscle-tone requirements.
Group 1 adaptable baby seat with multi-position recline.
Group 2 / High-Back Child Seat (15–25 kg / ~4 to 7 Years)
High-back boosters that secure the child using the vehicle’s 3-point seatbelt while offering side-impact protection, headrest elevation, and proper belt routing across the child’s chest and hips.
Group 2 high-back child seat offering lateral head protection.
Group 3 / Booster Cushion (22–36 kg / ~6 to 12 Years)
Booster seats designed for older children who still require elevation to ensure the car’s seatbelt rests safely across their shoulder and lap rather than their neck. Note: Children under 135 cm are legally prohibited from traveling in the front passenger seat in Spain.
Group 3 booster cushion for older children up to 135 cm.
How to Request Child Seats When Booking
To guarantee seat availability and proper pre-installation, child seats must be requested at the time of reservation. During booking on our website, simply select the number and group/age of child seats required. Child seats are charged at a flat rate of €5 per seat per journey.
Important Minivan Notice: Standard sedan vehicles can accommodate a maximum of one or two child seats depending on width. If your family requires 2 or more bulky child seats alongside full luggage, we strongly recommend booking a Mercedes Minivan (up to 7-8 seats) to ensure full comfort and space.
FAQs – Child Seat Regulations in Spain (DGT)
Is it legal for children to travel in a taxi without a car seat in Malaga?
In Spain, standard municipal taxis are legally exempt from child seats only for inner-city urban trips. However, for highway transfers (such as traveling from Malaga Airport along the A-7 / AP-7 to Marbella, Estepona, or Fuengirola) and for all VTC private transfers like MarbeTaxi, proper child restraint systems are 100% mandatory by law.
Can parents bring their own car seat from home?
Yes, you are welcome to bring your own child seat. However, it must comply with European safety standard approvals (ECE R44/04 or UN R129 i-Size). US (LATCH) or Australian standard seats are technically not homologated under European traffic law.
What is the fine for traveling without a child seat in Spain?
Failing to secure a child in an approved restraint system carries a €200 fine imposed by the Guardia Civil / DGT, and the vehicle will be immobilized until a compliant seat is provided.
Are your child seats sanitized between transfers?
Absolutly. Every baby seat and booster cushion undergoes thorough cleaning and steam sanitization prior to installation in our vehicles, ensuring peak hygiene for your baby.
