How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
Baltimore County Correctional offers both in-person and virtual visits. Availability and rules vary by housing unit and visit type, so confirm current requirements before planning your trip. You'll typically need to be on the incarcerated person's approved visitor list and bring a valid government-issued photo ID. Expect to complete any required visitation or video forms and pass security screening before entry. If visits are scheduled through a third-party video or scheduling service, you'll need to create an account and book your time through that platform. On-site virtual visits may be free, while at-home video visits often come with fees. The facility's website also links to a PDF about the Telmate data breach with steps to protect your personal information—review it before using vendor services.
