Bingo Books (手配書, Bingo-Bukku) are black books used by ninja that contain any and all information on black-listed ninja they are to target. There are multiple versions of the Bingo Books, the most common being those based from the Hidden Villages. Normally, Bingo Book entries are compiled by a village's high ranking officials, usually the Kage, that are then distributed to its jōnin and Anbu members. Those listed are typically dangerous ninja from rival villages, missing-nin, or potential security threats that are to be eliminated given the opportunity.

Bingo books are automatically given free of charge to all Jounin rank or higher ninja of the village, as well as all members of the Konoha Military Police Force. Ninja of Chunnin rank or higher are able to undertake solo missions to capture or kill targets within the book of their personal rank or lower. If a group of ninja gather to hunt a target, then they are able to challenge up to the highest rank of the group.
