Within three months following the commencement of the usufruct, the usufructuary may request the assignment to him or her of the receivables and negotiable instruments that are the object of the right.

The usufructuary becomes liable to the assignor to pay the price of the receivables and negotiable instruments in the amount of their value at the time of assignment and, unless this is waived, is further obliged to provide security for this debt.

If the right to request security has not been waived, the assignment takes effect only after security has been provided.

MADDE 822 · c. Devir isteme hakkı

İntifa hakkı sahibi, intifaın başlangıcını izleyen üç ay içinde, hakkın konusu olan alacağın ve kıymetli evrakın kendisine devrini isteyebilir.

İntifa hakkı sahibi, alacağın ve kıymetli evrakın devri sırasındaki değeri tutarında devredene karşı bunların bedelini ödeme borcu altına girer ve feragat edilmedikçe bu borç için ayrıca güvence göstermekle yükümlü olur.

Güvence istemekten feragat edilmemiş ise devir, ancak güvence gösterildikten sonra hüküm ifade eder.
