How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
Brazoria County Jail offers in-person visiting every day from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM. To get in, register at Male Visitation, complete the visitation form, and show a valid government-issued photo ID. Plan your timing carefully—you must register at least 15 minutes before the visitation period ends. Space in the visitation room is limited to either two adults and one child, or one adult and two children. Anyone under 18 must be with a parent or legal guardian, and children need supervision at all times. If you've been incarcerated within the last six weeks, you won't be permitted to visit. The county also encourages using NCIC.com Inmate Messaging to send messages, documents, and photos instead of postal mail. Visitation privileges can be restricted for safety concerns or rule violations.
