Husband died unexpectedly. Can the family members of the credit card return it?
Legal analysis: when the husband dies, the credit card debt does not need to be repaid by family members, but the corresponding debt needs to be repaid by the deceased's estate. However, if the husband's credit card is in arrears, it will be used for living together and both parties will borrow money together. As a joint debt of husband and wife, it needs to be repaid by one spouse. The debts originally incurred by husband and wife living together shall be paid off jointly. If the joint property is insufficient to pay off, or if the property belongs to each other, it shall be paid off by mutual agreement; If the agreement fails, the people's court shall make a judgment.

Legal basis: Article 161 of the Civil Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) (hereinafter referred to as "Civil Law"), the successor shall pay off the taxes and debts that the decedent should pay according to law within the limit of the actual value of the acquired inheritance. The part exceeding the actual value of the estate shall be voluntarily repaid by the heir. If the heir renounces inheritance, he may not be liable for paying off the taxes and debts that the decedent should pay according to law.
