Canadian car seat when traveling to the US

I know this might not be an answer exactly, but I can’t leave a comment:

We have taken US car seats to Canada (by car), Mexico and Europe (Denmark) for our kids.
We have not have any questioning about them at the border, not even in Canada when the kids were in them. I have not have any one stop and check the seats there. In Denmark we used a private car though, not a rental.

I have been pulled over by the police once with kids in the car seats here in the US, and they didn’t as much as look at the car seats, if they were legal or properly installed – they just ticked the minor traffic infraction committed.

I know this is anecdotal, but I think as long as the kid is in a car seat appropriate for the child’s age, you will not run into trouble. Be sure to note whether the state you travel to have rules regarding forward vs. rear facing for certain ages, and when the kid can move from a 5-point to a booster.
