I think it is only if it FIA approved and your are competing in a cams event. This is the same for harnesses which are FIA approved, they have an expiry date on them. After the date you need to either have them rewebbed or replaced. Most events dont specify FIA approved seats and harnesses etc, but if it is approved then it should be in date to be able to use it, but that might not be checked.

Please correct me if I am wrong, I don't have a cams manual anymore to check.

Seats only need the FIA tag for International races...can use pretty much anything in normal events.
NC Roadie, NC Racey, ND Racey….and a 30AE

Plus several others in the bone yard...
