How to Visit Cross City Corrections Institution (FL)

Anyone 16 or older needs a valid photo ID to enter the visiting area at Cross City Corrections Institution. Have it ready at check-in. No ID, no visit.

Want snacks or drinks from the visiting room vending machines? You can bring up to $50 in cash per visitor. Stick to $1, $5, $10, and $20 bills only.

Steps

• ✓ Bring a valid photo ID if you are 16 or older.

• ✓ If you plan to use vending machines, bring no more than $50 cash per visitor, using only $1, $5, $10, and $20 bills.

• ✓ Contact the facility ahead of time to confirm the visiting schedule, any sign-up or visitor list process, the dress code, and any current screening requirements.

The rule is clear: visitors 16 and older need a valid photo ID. Still, call ahead to confirm the details. Ask which types of photo ID are accepted and whether expired IDs get turned away. A quick phone call can save you a cancelled visit at the door.

Double-check the vending cash rules before your visit. Confirm the $50 limit, the accepted bill denominations ($1, $5, $10, and $20), and whether that limit applies per person or per visit. Ask about non-cash options too, since policies can change.

1. Call the facility: Ask for the current visitation schedule and entry requirements (ID, dress code, approvals, and any same-day cutoffs).
2. Check the official corrections department site: Look for the listing for Cross City Corrections Institution and any posted visitor updates.
3. Review the facility’s visitor information page or posted materials: Use the most recent official posting you can find and match it to what you were told by staff.
