How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
Anderson County Detention Center follows Tennessee's visitor approval process. You'll need to complete the Visitor Application (CR‑2152), attach a current photograph, and list a street address (not a P.O. Box). Submit the application to the facility's visiting office or the designated official for processing. Expect an NCIC background check, and plan for about 30 days of processing time. Once approved, you're added to the offender-management system and can schedule visits through the facility's scheduling system, typically an on-site kiosk or vendor portal. Staff may change or cancel visits at their discretion. For questions, contact the Anderson County Sheriff's Office at 101 South Main Street, Clinton, TN.
