Depends on the toilet, if it's a porcelain toilet then most likely it would fit, if it's the cheapo rv plastic thing, probably not. Take the old one off & take it to hardware store to compare.

Ductape, TT is NOT saying you should take this thing into Home Depot, plop your butt down on a bunch of toilet seats and see which is the most comfortable....

WHAT!!!? I always thought buying a toilet seat was like trying on clothes. Just take a few to the restroom, lay the prospective "comfy rings" on the toilet, drop the drawers and give it a "wiggle" to check for fit and comfort...……..holy cow.....is that not acceptable?

I looked for a snarky/funny meme about toilet seat fit........and failed.
However, I did find this from American Standard:
There are industry standards for*toilet seats*–*all toilets*have seat post holes on 5 1/2" centers –*allelongated bowls are 18 1/2" from seat posts to front of rim, and*all*round bowls are 16 1/2". Any manufacturer's*seats*will*fit*any*toilet*manufactu rers bowls if they are standard round or standard elongated.

Ours has a 'throne seat' from Lowe's. The only other thing I had to do is add a couple more stick on rubber bumpers next to the existing since the RV bowl rim is quite a bit narrower then a home toilet.
Let us know how the posterior fit check works out for you

According to Larry the Cable Guy Home Depot has a toilet he used 1/2 price. "Now that there's funny, I don't care who you are."
