Brevard County Jail, FL

Brevard County Jail handles visitation through Smart Communications kiosks—traditional face-to-face visits are only available for professional or specially approved situations. Before your on-site kiosk visit, lock all personal property in your vehicle and bring only your valid ID. Cell phones and other items aren't allowed in the visitation area. Keep things respectful: no profanity, lewd conduct, smoking, or eating in visitation areas. Anyone under the influence will be denied entry or removed. Visits may be recorded, and unauthorized photographing or recording can end your visit and trigger at least a 30-day suspension. Make sure you're on the inmate's approved visitor list before making the trip.

Brevard County Jail uses Smart Communications for video visits, phone calls, and SmartInmate messaging. Start by creating an account on the Smart Communications website—you'll use it to schedule video visits, receive calls, and send messages and photos. Remote video visits run 15 or 30 minutes at $0.25 per minute. You can schedule up to 7 days ahead, but no later than 24 hours before your visit. Remote and on-demand visitation hours are 8:00–12:00, 1:00–5:00, and 8:00–10:30 PM daily. For inmate-initiated on-demand video visits, you'll need to answer within three minutes. SmartInmate messages cost $0.50 each, though you get two free every Saturday. Messages may be rejected for codes, blackmail, extortion, threats, contraband, or information about another inmate. Phone calls run $0.16 per minute plus tax.

Send all personal mail to Smart Communications/Brevard County, PO Box 9145, Seminole, FL 33775-9145. Include the inmate's full name and booking/ID number—without it, your mail gets returned. Don't send original important documents like birth certificates or Social Security cards. Originals get destroyed, so send copies instead. Routine mail is scanned and delivered digitally. Scanned items are kept for 30 days, then destroyed. During that window, inmates can download photos, messages, and postal mail free through smartjailmail.com. Mail can be rejected for gang symbols, nudity, or lewd content, and any contraband will be seized with notice to both you and the inmate. Attorneys should send clearly marked "Privileged/Legal Mail" to the Brevard County Jail Complex Mail Clerk at 860 Camp Rd, Cocoa, FL 32927.

Brevard County Jail uses Smart Communications for inmate telephone and account services. Set up and manage your account at smartinmate.com or by calling 727-349-1561.

To add money for commissary or a trust account, deposit options typically include an online portal, phone deposits, a lobby kiosk, or mailing a money order—exact methods and fees vary by vendor.
