Legal analysis: According to the principle of death of a person and the death of debts, when the holder of a credit card dies, the debts he bears will disappear accordingly. However, in order to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the creditor, the creditor can use the debtor's property to pay off the debt. Relatives of the cardholder (debtor) are not responsible for the debt, and creditors are not allowed to collect debts from their relatives. However, relatives can repay if they are willing to do so. The cardholder's portion of the property owned by relatives and the cardholder should be used for repayment.
Legal basis: "Measures for the Supervision and Administration of Credit Card Business of Commercial Banks" Article 70: Under special circumstances, it is confirmed that the amount of credit card debt exceeds the cardholder's ability to repay and the cardholder is still willing to repay.
