How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
Visiting at Belmont Correctional Institution takes some planning, especially your first time. Visitors must be processed by set cutoff times for morning and afternoon sessions, and hours can change without notice—always confirm the schedule before you travel. Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction rules limit an incarcerated person's visiting list to 15 approved adult visitors, with no more than two listed as friends. Before visiting, you'll need to submit the Visiting Application (DRC2096), sign the Declaration of Understanding (DRC2554) and General Visiting Instructions (DRC2274), and bring a bona fide photo ID. Many Ohio facilities use an approval and scheduling portal once paperwork is processed. During visits, you can't hand over packages, mail, money, or printed items—those must go through mail procedures.
