公司有限责任制度,是公司以其全部资产对公司的债务承担清偿责任,而股东仅以其出资或股份为限对公司承担责任的制度。其意味着,当公司资产不足以清偿对外的全部债务时,在一般情况下,公司的债权人不得以公司的资产不足清偿自己的债权为抗辩之理由,请求股东承担其超过出资义务的责任,公 The limited liability system of the company is the company’s responsibility to repay the debts of the company with all its assets, while the shareholder only takes the responsibility of the company for its own contribution or shares. It means that when the assets of the company are not enough to pay off all the foreign debts, under normal circumstances, the creditors of the company may not request the shareholders to bear the liabilities of exceeding their contribution obligation because the debts of the company are not enough to repay their own debts.
