How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
Oahu Community Correctional Center (OCCC) offers visits seven days a week (excluding state holidays) from 7:30 AM to 12:30 PM. Schedule your 30-minute, non-contact visit by phone during weekday morning hours, and plan to check in at least 15 minutes early. Each inmate gets one visit per week, with a maximum of two visitors (including children). Visit areas are sanitized between sessions. Halawa Correctional Facility (HCF) runs weekend-only visitation in first-half, lunch, and second-half blocks. Miss the posted check-in cutoffs and you'll be turned away. HCF visits last 30 minutes, require you to be on the inmate's approved list, and some units like HMSF have room occupancy limits. Call ahead to confirm whether visits are being held that day.
Search for a loved one and send messages and photos in minutes.
Visits can get changed or cancelled for operational reasons, even when you've planned ahead. A quick confirmation call before you leave can save you a wasted trip, time off work, and last-minute childcare scrambling—especially if you're traveling across the island or working with a tight check-in window.
