Presumably you mean debtor in bankruptcy....as most everyone is a debtor of some type!

Sure.

Of course it would probably be illegal to flee the country to avoid the responsibilities....

No they can't.Civil action such as lawsuits for debts are only possible in the country in which the debt was incurred.However, if the debts with a lending institutions/bank which also do business within the country they now live, they will have a very difficult time establishing a new lince of credit.Also, the debtor can still be sued in the country in which the debt was made and the creditor can "hold" the judgment award for the length of time allowed under the law, or execute it against property that may still belong to the absentee debtor.

What happens if you leave the country for ten years as an alternative to bankruptcy?

Well, you'd still be held liable for any debts you have incurred, and almost any company can track you to another country, where they'd still attempt to collect. The SOL's may not apply to debts deliberately incurred and then defaulted on in such a manner. Entries will be expunged from the debtor's credit report. Likewise, there will be no record of current credit history so and it may prove difficult to restablish a good credit rating under such circumstances. The laws of the U.S. concerning debtor's do not apply outside of the country. However, bank accounts or other property belonging to the absentee debtor can be seized by a judgment creditor.
