Visitation
Carter County Jail offers several ways to visit, including in-person time at on-site kiosks, scheduled remote video visits, phone visits, and mail. Before visiting, you'll need to submit a visitor application. Adults (18+) are typically screened with a background check before approval. Requesting a visit doesn't mean it's confirmed. Facility staff will contact you to approve and confirm the appointment, so schedule early and wait for that confirmation before showing up. How much visiting time you get can depend on the inmate's security level and housing status. Attorney visits follow separate confidentiality procedures and are usually arranged directly through jail administration.
