Abstract: A walk-in apparatus for a vehicle seat includes a walk-in bracket rotatably coupled to a crossbar of a cushion frame and operable to release a fixing member by contacting the fixing member of a seat rail; a compensator bracket operably connected to the walk-in bracket through a hinge, the compensator bracket also being connected to a walk-in cable; and a compensator spring configured to support the walk-in bracket and the compensator bracket, rotate at least one of the walk-in bracket and the compensator bracket, and operate in such a manner as to return the compensator bracket. Even when the walk-in cable is released due to a seatback rebound phenomenon during a walk-in operation, the walk-in bracket maintains a pressing state of the fixing member to maintain continuously an unlocking state of the seat rail, allowing the vehicle seat to move forward smoothly to enable a walk-in operation.
