What ID and Security Checks You Need to Visit Boone County Jail
Visiting someone at Boone County Jail goes much smoother when you bring the right ID and know what to expect at security. Here's how to avoid getting turned away at the door.
To visit at Boone County Jail, you must be at least 18 years old. If you’re under 18, you can still visit as long as you’re accompanied by an adult.
When you arrive, you'll sign in at the front. Expect a check-in process before you're allowed through, and follow staff directions as you go.
Scheduling an on-site visit in advance? You'll need to present a valid state-issued ID, consular ID, or passport. Bring the document you plan to use so scheduling goes smoothly.
Even if you showed ID during scheduling, staff may ask for it again when you arrive. The safest bet: bring your photo ID every time you visit.
Warning: If you refuse to consent to a search, you will be denied admission to Boone County Jail.
You can also be denied entry for violating the jail's visitation rules. If you're unsure whether something you're planning to bring or do might cause problems, adjust before you go. It's better than getting turned away after you've already made the trip.
Masks required: Everyone entering Boone County Jail must wear a face mask the entire time they are inside, regardless of vaccination status.
