Cessio bonorum (Latin for a "surrender of goods"), in Roman law, is a voluntary surrender of goods by a debtor to his creditors. It did not amount to a discharge unless the property ceded was sufficient for the purpose, but it secured the debtor from personal arrest. The creditors sold the goods as partial restoration of their claims. The procedure of cessio bonorum avoided infamia, and the debtor, though his after-acquired property might be proceeded against, could not be deprived of the bare necessaries of life. The main features of the Roman law of cessio bonorum were adopted in medieval law, Scots law, and also in French law.

- In diritto, la cessione di beni ai creditori (cessio bonorum) è il contratto col quale il debitore incarica i suoi creditori o alcuni di essi di alienare tutti o alcuni suoi beni e di ripartirne fra loro il ricavato in soddisfacimento dei loro crediti (art. 1977 cod.civ.). Appartenente al gruppo dei contratti diretti a dirimere controversie, la cessione dei beni ai creditori ha lo scopo di evitare la procedura esecutiva, spesso lunga e dipendiosa, sostituendola con un modo convenzionale di liquidazione dei beni del debitore insolvente.

È richiesta ad substantiam la forma scritta, perciò in caso contrario il contratto sarà nullo (art. 1978, comma 1 cod.civ.). (it)
