The nature of death compensation refers to what kind of damage the death compensation is for. It is related to the determination, calculation and payment of death compensation. On this issue, there is a consensus in the world's laws that death compensation is not compensation for the property damage of the deceased, but compensation for some relatives related to the victim. However, there are two types of legislation, namely the "loss of dependency" and the "loss of inheritance."

The nature of death compensation

1.1 "The theory of loss of support"

1.1.1 "Support loss theory" believes that victims' deaths caused them to be provided in accordance with legal support obligations during their lifetime.

1. Death compensation is related to the economic level of the court indicted.

As a matter of course, if the economic level of the place where the responded court is better, the per capita disposable income of urban residents or the per capita net income of rural residents will be higher, and the total death compensation will be higher.

2. The death compensation is related to the account of the deceased.

In the same area, the per capita disposable income of urban residents and the per capita net income of rural residents are inconsistent, and sometimes there are still huge differences, which may cause the amount of death compensation to be several times different. Therefore, the law stipulates the conditions under which rural hukou will receive compensation for death in accordance with the income standard of urban residents, and close relatives of the deceased can actively fight for the conditions. However, if multiple people die as a result of the same tort, death compensation may be determined at the same amount.

3. Death compensation is related to the biological age of the deceased.

When the victim is older, it is not appropriate to make larger death compensation according to the characteristics of life. Therefore, national laws link the age of death compensation to the age of the person. The smaller the compensation, the more than 60 years of age, one year for each additional year; for those over 75 years of age, calculated as five years.
