Hello, my answer to your question is that Article 224 of the Contract Law of China stipulates: "The lessee may sublease the lease item to a third person with the consent of the lessor. If the lessee subleases the lease item, the lease contract between the lessee and the lessor continues to be valid. If the third person causes losses to the lease item, the lessee shall compensate for the losses", "If the lessee subleases without the consent of the lessor, the lessor may terminate the contract". Does this clause mean that the lessee has no right to sublease? The original intention of the law is to give the lessor the option to terminate the contract in the case of protecting the interests of the lessor. In order to prevent the lessee from using the lease item to sublease the profits and infringing the property rights of the lessor. What is transferred in the conclusion of the lease contract is the right to the possession, use and proceeds of the lease item. The purpose of obtaining the lease item by the lessee is also to use and benefit. Therefore, in the absence of special agreement between the parties, the lessee has the right to use and benefit after obtaining the lease item in accordance with the lease contract, and the lessor shall not interfere improperly. However, the sublease, that is, the usufruct, must be agreed in advance. In addition, according to the relevant judicial interpretation: if the lessor knows or should know about the lessee's sublease, but does not raise an objection within 6 months, it shall not request the people or an arbitration institution to terminate the contract or determine that the sublease contract is invalid on the ground that the lessee has not obtained its consent.
