Baldwin County Jail, GA

First, get approved: submit a completed Visitation Request Form to Baldwin County Jail so the incarcerated person can add you to their approved list. You can't schedule anything until this step is done. Once approved, request a visit through the Georgia Department of Corrections online visitation form and pick an available session. If you're a significant other who isn't immediate family, the offender must submit a Significant Relationship Visitor Application to the Warden/Superintendent for review. After you have an appointment, use the facility's Add Visitor link to bring others along, or the Cancel my visit link if plans change. Deadlines matter: weekend requests are due by 5:00 PM the preceding Wednesday, and state-holiday requests by 5:00 PM three days before the holiday. Some ID options require you to be 18+.
