德国婚后扶养制度研究

根据德国2008年修订后的有关法律，离婚配偶可以因为照顾共同子女、年老、疾病、失业、收入差距、接受教育等原因请求扶养费，也可以基于公平原则请求扶养。公平原则不仅本身可以作为扶养费请求权的基础，同时也是确定扶养费具体数额的标准。扶养费必须满足权利人全部的生活需要，同时兼顾婚姻中的生活状况。提供扶养费的前提是保证义务人自身的供养，以免其本身成为扶养请求权的权利人，同时还要扣除权利人本身的收入。如果扶养义务人同时向多人承担扶养义务，应该按照法律规定的顺位，优先满足未成年子女的扶养费。为了实现个案中的公平原则，德国2008年立法改革对于扶养请求权设定了限制，包括时间上的限制和数额上的限制。此外，为了达到公平的目的，法律规定了8种重大不公的情况，在这些情况下，扶养义务人可以免除其扶养责任。
