What NOT to Wear — Graceville Correctional Facility Dress Code & ID Rules
Graceville Correctional Facility is strict about visitor ID and dress code. Check the quick rules and checklist below before you go — showing up unprepared means getting turned away.
Anyone 16 or older needs a valid photo ID to enter the visiting area. Staff check at the door - no exceptions. Don't leave it in the car, and don't assume another document will work. It has to be a valid picture ID.
Reminder: Visitors age 16+ need a valid photo ID to enter the visiting area.
This one's obvious, but worth stating: you must wear a shirt. Graceville requires it for every visitor, no exceptions.
Footwear rule: Shoes are required. Heelys and any footwear with removable parts aren’t allowed.
Dresses, skirts, and Bermuda-length shorts can't be more than three inches above the knee. If you're torn between two options, go with the longer one. Borderline lengths cause problems at check-in.
- ✓ Avoid: a dress that sits more than 3 inches above your knee
- ✓ Avoid: a skirt that rides up and ends more than 3 inches above your knee
- ✓ Avoid: Bermuda-length shorts cut more than 3 inches above the knee
- ✓ Safer choice: a dress, skirt, or Bermuda-length short that stays at or close to the knee (not more than 3 inches above)
Skip the camouflage. Graceville bans all military-style camo patterns - jungle (green), urban (grey/black), and desert (tan/brown).
