没収
主刑に付け加えてだけ言い渡すことのできる刑（付加刑）で（刑法第九条）、犯罪に関わる物を没収するものです。没収できるのは、犯罪行為を組成した物、犯罪行為に使い、又は使おうとした物、犯罪行為によって生じ、若しくは得た物又は犯罪行為の報酬として得た物、及びその対価として得た物です（同法第十九条第一項）。犯人以外の者のものは没収できませんが、犯罪の後にその者が事情を知って取得した物は没収できます（同条第二項）。拘留又は科料のみに当たる罪については、特別の規定がなければ、犯罪行為を組成した物しか没収できません（同法第二十条）。犯罪によって得た物などを没収できないときは、その価額を追徴することができます（同法第十九条の二）。

罰金
金銭を国に納めさせる刑罰で、一万円以上です。減軽する場合は一万円未満に下げることができます（刑法第十五条）。拘禁刑より軽く、拘留や科料より重い刑です（同法第九条・第十条第一項）。完納できない人は、一日以上二年以下（罰金を併科した場合などは三年以下）の期間、労役場に留置され、その期間は刑の言渡しのときに定められます（同法第十八条第一項・第三項・第四項）。裁判が確定した後三十日以内は、本人の承諾がなければ留置の執行はできません（同条第五項）。刑の言渡しが確定した後、三年間執行を受けないと時効が完成し、執行の免除を得ます（同法第三十一条・第三十二条第五号）。ただし、法令により執行を猶予し又は停止した期間や、本人が国外にいる期間は時効が進行せず、執行行為をすると時効は中断します（同法第三十三条・第三十四条第二項）。

拘禁刑
刑事施設に拘置する刑です。無期と有期があり、有期は一月以上二十年以下です（刑法第十二条第一項・第二項）。刑を加重するときは三十年まで上げ、減軽するときは一月未満に下げることができます（同法第十四条第二項）。改善更生を図るため、必要な作業を行わせ、又は必要な指導を行うことができます（同法第十二条第三項）。主刑の中では死刑の次に重く、罰金より重い刑です（同法第九条・第十条第一項）。刑法等の一部を改正する法律（令和四年法律第六十七号）の施行により、懲役と禁錮に代わって設けられました（同法第二条）。懲役又は禁錮に処せられた人は、人の資格に関する法令の適用については、刑期を同じくする拘禁刑に処せられた人とみなされます（令和四年法律第六十八号第四百四十三条第一項）。
