A surety who pays the debt in whole or in part shall be bound to notify the debtor thereof.
If the surety fails to give this notice and the debtor, who did not know and was not required to know of the payment, also performs to the creditor, the surety shall lose his right of recourse.
The surety's right of action against the creditor arising from unjust enrichment shall be reserved.

MADDE 597 · c. Kefilin bildirim yükü
Borcu tamamen veya kısmen ödeyen kefil, durumu borçluya bildirmek zorundadır.
Kefil, bu bildirimde bulunmazsa ve ödemeyi bilmeyen veya bilmesi gerekmeyen borçlu da alacaklıya ifada bulunursa, rücu hakkını kaybeder.
Kefilin, alacaklıya karşı sebepsiz zenginleşmeden doğan dava hakkı saklıdır.
