A vehicle seat including: a tilt down mechanism configured to sink down a seat cushion in conjunction with forward tilting down movement of a seat back; and a link member coupled between the seat back and the seat cushion, wherein the link member is coupled to be slidable relative to either of the seat back and the seat cushion so that, when the seat back is moved within a region in which the seat back is raised from a forward tilted down position, the link member transmits power from the seat back to the seat cushion to pull up the seat cushion, and when the seat back is tilted within an adjustment region of a backrest angle of the seat back, the link member releases the transmission of the power from the seat back to the seat cushion.
