Gadsden Re-entry, FL

Visiting at Gadsden Correctional Facility starts with approval. Anyone 12 or older must complete a visitation application (one per person), sign it, and fill it out completely. Blanks on the form can lead to denial. Don't make the trip until the inmate confirms you've been approved. Typical visiting hours are weekends 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM and weekdays 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM (Central). Visitor processing begins at 8:15 AM, and no visitors are processed after 2:00 PM. If you're 16 or older, bring a valid photo ID. Expect searches of both visitors and property. Refusing a search can cost you this visit and future visits. Dress code and allowed items are strictly limited. You may bring up to $50 cash for vending (approved bills only), but you cannot give money to inmates.
