In 221, the new law stipulates that the father's debts are still paid?

1. In China's modern civil law system (including the newly effective Civil Code), there is no mandatory legal constraint of "repayment of father's debt to son", which means that "repayment of father's debt to son" is not legally supported.

second, in the inheritance law (now incorporated into the Civil Code), it is stipulated that the successor has the obligation to repay the debts on behalf of the decedent conditionally, but it also assumes the obligations or responsibilities within the prescribed conditions. That is to say, the obligation is fulfilled within the limit of the inherited property, and there is no mandatory provision for those who exceed the limit of the inherited property.

Third, "paying the debts of the father to the son" is a folk tradition, but with the construction of our civil law system, this tradition has no legal support. It should be regarded as a virtue of honesty that children voluntarily repay debts on behalf of their parents on the premise that they have the ability.
