An actuating device is provided for a vehicle seat whose seat back can be folded forward around a pivot axis into a deflected position to facilitate entrance and exit. The seat back is held in its folded-back end position by bilaterally provided rotary drop latches which can be unlocked remotely by a common actuating element in synchronization and with a tension arrangement being provided for remote unlocking. The rotary drop latches are rotationally coupled by a connecting rod and operably connected by a single tension strand with the actuating element.
