{{main|Sanma}}
In some rulesets, especially of [[sanma|three-player mahjong]], the North, flower or other tiles may be used as a special dora. When a nukidora tile is obtained, the player may call it, set the tile aside, and the hand gains 1 dora. Then, the player gets a dead wall draw. Nukidora tiles in the hand do not provide dora.

The [[naki|call]] for a North nukidora is pei nuki {{kana|北抜き}}, or pei {{kana|北}} for short. It is commonly called kita on English-localized mahjong platforms.
 
The call for a flower nukidora is fa {{kana|ファ or 花}}.
