The Kuji-in seal set are commonly used in all Uzumaki fuinjutsu, from basics to advanced levels. Many are intergrated into the 12 basic hand seals to create different technique variations and sealing styles. These hand seals are also common in elemental seals and space-time seals. These could be considered the nine basic Uzumaki hand seals.

The last set of hand seals are known as Nanashi. These seals are also known as the strengthening seals. Nanashi is used to support and strengthen any seal or technique that the Uzumaki use. They are also used to break and remove seals. When paired with other hand seal sets, the technique becomes kinjutsu due to the strength and high mortality risk that comes with it. These seals used alone can also break a genjutsu or other technique. They are also commonly used in juinjutsu and secret Uzumaki clan arts.

All five hand seal sets are influenced by the Uzumaki clan traveling period in their history. Some of the hand seals are inspired by discoveries throughout the Elemental Nations while others are influenced by what they found in other continents. Some hand seal sets can be combined while others can be used with one hand (like the original 12). Members of the Uzumaki clan are forbidden to teach these hand seal to outsiders and can risk disownment or even memory erasure if the crime is committed. Some hand seal sets can only be used according to the level of fuinijutsu mastery of the individual.
