| - Depending on the village leader's decisions, the missing-nin in question may be given leniency. The most prominent example is Sasuke Uchiha who is not marked for death by the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade as a favour to Naruto Uzumaki , and is instead to be brought back as a Konohagakure citizen. However, according to shinobi, a missing-nin is typically marked for death simply for defecting, and such mercy is rare. The Bingo Book contains information on every missing-nin and is given to every jonin and ANBU member by their respective Kage.
- Missing-nin (抜け忍, Nukenin) are ninja who left their home village without the intention of returning and severing ties with said village, often because they have committed criminal acts or to pursue other personal agendas.
- Leaving the village does not necessarily automatically make one a missing-nin. Tsunade withdraws from life as a ninja and departs from Konoha following the Second Shinobi World War, but she is at no time considered a missing-nin by the village. Jiraiya informs her, however, that if she aids Orochimaru — an enemy of Konoha — that her status will change and he will be forced to kill her. Rōshi left Iwagakure to learn more and to better control of Son Gokū that was sealed inside him, but despite taking such a potential war power from the village, he was not branded a missing-nin either.

Rōshi left Iwagakure to learn more and to better control of Son Gokū that was sealed inside him, but despite taking such a potential war power from the village, he was not branded a missing-nin either. Likewise, being branded a missing-nin does not guarantee their former village will seek them out as a criminal. Itachi Uchiha becomes a missing-nin after the Uchiha Clan Downfall, but he does so under orders of Konoha's leadership; while most of Konoha's population does indeed consider Itachi a criminal and treats him as such, its leaders are privately aware that he remains loyal to Konoha. Similarly, when Sasuke Uchiha defects from Konoha and becomes a missing-nin, the Fifth Hokage decides not to pursue him as a criminal as a favour to Naruto Uzumaki. Danzō, when appointed the "Sixth Hokage Candidate", later withdraws this leniency and orders his execution. For his help during the Fourth Shinobi World War and the good word of the Sixth Hokage, Sasuke is ultimately pardoned for his crimes.
