Sun shield for a seating surface of a seat in a vehicle

The present invention relates to a sun shield for a seating surface (510) of a seat (500) in a vehicle and to a method for shielding the seating surface of the seat in the vehicle. The sun shield comprises: a blind (100) having a base part (110), a connecting end (120) and a shielding part (130) which connects the base part (110) and the connecting end (120), wherein the base part (110) is attached to a first part of the seat (500), wherein the blind (100) has an extracted position and a retracted position, wherein in the extracted position of the blind (100) the connecting end (120) is attached to a second part of the seat (500) such that the shielding part (130) extends over the seating surface (510), thereby shielding the seating surface (510) from sunlight incident on the shielding part (130), and wherein in the retracted position of the blind (100), the connecting end (120) is not attached to the second part of the seat (500).
