The position was created by [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]], and remained in place throughout the [[Edo period]]. From [[1642]] until [[1670]], the ''bugyô'' was assisted by a ''[[Nagasaki tandai shoku]]''; that post was abolished in 1670. The ''bugyô'' also had four ''machi toshiyori'' under him who helped administer the inner city, while the ''daikan'' of the outer city reported directly to the financial magistrates (''[[kanjo bugyo|kanjô bugyô]]'') in Edo. The total number of officials and staff under the command of the Nagasaki ''bugyô'' numbered around 550.<ref>Daniele Lauro, "Displaying authority: Guns, political legitimacy, and martial pageantry in Tokugawa Japan, 1600 - 1868," MA Thesis, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill (2013), 49.</ref>

The ''bugyô'' were typically ''[[hatamoto]]'' with a [[stipend]] of 500 to 1500 ''[[koku]]''. The two (or more) ''Nagasaki bugyô'' typically switched places each year, traveling from Edo to Nagasaki through the [[Inland Sea]], and from Nagasaki to Edo along an overland route.<ref>Umimichi wo yuku: Edo jidai no Seto Naikai 海道をゆく－江戸時代の瀬戸内海－, Museum of Ehime History and Culture 愛媛県歴史文化博物館 (1999), 121-122.</ref>
