Harrison County Jail

Visiting someone at Harrison County Jail is straightforward once you know the rules. Visits happen on Fridays from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., and you'll need to schedule yours by calling the facility at the phone number listed on the sheriff's page. Each inmate gets one visit per week with up to two visitors. Visits last 30 minutes and are non-contact. Bring a valid photo ID for check-in, and anyone under 17 must be with a parent or legal guardian. Staff can turn you away if you appear under the influence of alcohol or drugs, if your clothing doesn't meet the dress rules, or if contraband is suspected (the facility provides examples and requires females to wear a brassiere). Don't bring items to leave with an inmate. The commissary handles purchases and also provides email and video visitation access.

Harrison County Jail does not allow you to bring in items for inmates. Any approved purchases go through the commissary, which is also where email and video visitation access is provided. To arrange a visit, use the phone number listed on the jail's contact page. That page also includes the sheriff's office mailing address and administrative hours. If you plan to email the jail, know that the contact-page email account is not monitored 24/7. For urgent situations, call 911 or the office directly. The jail also warns that plain-text email is not secure, so avoid sending sensitive information that way. For electronic services, Missouri jails commonly use third-party vendors, and you'll typically need to register and fund an account before getting started.

You have two ways to put money on an inmate's account at Harrison County Jail: the lobby kiosk (available 24 hours) or the InmateCanteen online portal using the official vendor URL listed on the facility page. Credit card deposits are capped at $150 per transaction and $500 total within any 30-day period, with service fees shown during checkout. Kiosk and card payments usually post quickly, while mailed deposits typically take a few business days. Whether you deposit in person or online, follow the prompts carefully and enter the inmate's name or ID exactly as requested before submitting payment.
