Although there is no official organization that acknowledges such reports, multiple observations have been made to confirm the existence of these exoplanets and to indicate that these objects are not massive enough to be classified as brown dwarfs—as proposed by the Working Group on Extrasolar Planets of the International Astronomical Union in 2003.
The existence of at least another 25 exoplanets has been suggested but not yet confirmed. This corresponds to only 38 stars with confirmed planetary systems (and another five with only unconfirmed exoplanets) of the around 1,400 stars that are estimated to be located within 50 light-years away. However, of the around 133 stars which are bright enough to be visible with the naked eye, 20 have confirmed planetary systems.
Reports of planetary systems first came in 1996 for three stars located over 40 light-years away: 55 Cancri, Upsilon Andromedae, and 47 Ursae Majoris. In 1999, two other planets were reported to revolve around Upsilon Andromedae, thus making it the closest multiplanetary system at that time. From 2000 on, more planets were reported by the astronomical community, including a total of six planets revolving around Gliese 667 C, five around 55 Cancri, and four planets around Gliese 876, Gliese 581, and Upsilon Andromedae. An additional planet has been suggested to revolve around Gliese 667 C, another two around Gliese 876 and around Gliese 581, and a total of five unconfirmed planets revolving around Tau Ceti. Seven star systems have three confirmed planetary partners; five other have only two planets; while the remaining 21 systems have only one confirmed planet.
At only 4 light-years (ly) distance from our Solar System, the closest star system, Alpha Centauri, has been reported to contain a planetary companion that may be similar in size to Earth. But of the next the 38 closest star systems (within 14.5 ly), only Epsilon Eridani has confirmed planetary partners. Of the total of 38 planetary systems located within 50 ly, 23 are located within 40 ly, 14 are within 30 ly, seven are within 20 ly, and a single one is within 10 ly.
Essentially all the nearest exoplanets have been discovered by measuring the changes in the radial velocity of the host star, technique which allows for a good refinement of the orbital parameters and the lower-mass limits. Of the 75 confirmed planets within 50 light-years, over 40 were found to revolve around their star closer and complete an orbit faster than Mercury does around the Sun, and 23 have a more eccentric orbit than that of Mercury.
The planetary masses has been measured precisely for only 18 of the 75 exoplanets. For the others, because no precise estimation the orbital inclination (i) has been made available, only their minimum masses (Mreal*sin(i)) are known. It is generally expected that most of these masses to be close to their true masses (there is only a 13% chance for the planet to be more than double its minimum mass), but there have been a few cases where planetary candidates were suggested but later refinement showed that these were more than 13 times more massive than Jupiter, and thus are likely brown dwarfs. This was the case for WISE 0458+6434 B, WISE 1217+16A B, 2M 0746+20 B, MOA-2008-BLG-379L B, SDSS 141624 B, or HD 104304 B. Considering their minimum masses, 48 are expected to be gas giants, and only 27 are less than 10 times more massive than Earth. The smallest of these is Alpha Centauri Bb with a minimum mass 1.13 times that of Earth's. Only few exoplanets have been imaged during transit events with their host stars, and thus have had their planetary radii measured: Gliese 436 b at 0.365 RJ, 55 Cancri e at 0.178 RJ and GJ 1214 b at 0.238 RJ,.

- There is usually a notable error in the known distances of the stars. A few stars that are sometimes reported to be under the 50 light-years threshold, but they were not included in the current list: Mu Arae (50.59 ly), 51 Pegasi (50.7 ly), Tau Boötis (50.9 ly).
- For comparison, the 99th and 100th closest known star systems, Gliese 892 and LHS 3003 (Proxima Hydrae), are about 21 light-years away from the Solar System.
- An astronomical object is generally considered to be visible to the naked eye under "typical" dark sky conditions if it has an apparent magnitude smaller than +6.0 to +6.3. To the unaided eye the limiting magnitude is +7.6 to +8.0 (with effort).
