第二节 保证责任
Section 2
Suretyship Liability
第六百九十一条 保证的范围包括主债权及其利息、违约金、损害赔偿金和实现债权的费用。当事人另有约定的，按照其约定。
Article 691
The scope of suretyship covers the principal claim and the interest thereof, the
liquidated damages, compensatory damages, and the expenses for enforcing the
claim, unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
第六百九十二条 保证期间是确定保证人承担保证责任的期间，不发生中止、中断和延长。
Article 692
The term of suretyship is the period during which the surety undertakes
suretyship liability, and such period may not be suspended, interrupted, or
extended.
债权人与保证人可以约定保证期间，但是约定的保证期间早于主债务履行期限或者与主债务履行期限同时届满的，视为没有约定；没有约定或者约定不明确的，保证期间为主债务履行期限届满之日起六个月。
A creditor and a surety may agree on the term of suretyship. However, where the
expiration date of the agreed term of suretyship is earlier than or the same as
the expiration date of the period of performance of the principal obligation, it
is deemed as there is no agreement on the term of suretyship. Where there is no
agreement between the parties on the term of suretyship or the relevant
agreement is unclear, the term of suretyship shall be six months from the
expiration date of the period of performance of the principal obligation.
债权人与债务人对主债务履行期限没有约定或者约定不明确的，保证期间自债权人请求债务人履行债务的宽限期届满之日起计算。
Where a creditor and a debtor fail to agree on the period of performance of the
principal obligation or the relevant agreement is unclear, the term of
suretyship shall be counted from the date when the grace period for the creditor
to request the debtor to perform the obligation expires.
