How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
Haynesville Correctional Center offers two visiting options: in-person and video. Availability, visit length, contact status, and scheduling all depend on the facility's posted visitation calendar. Before booking anything, submit a visitor application and background authorization to the Central Visitation Unit—then wait for approval. Out-of-state applications typically take longer. Video visits usually require at least 24 hours' notice and can be scheduled up to two weeks ahead, while in-person booking windows vary. Bring a valid government-issued photo ID matching your approved application, follow the dress and conduct rules, and remember that minors must be listed on your application and accompanied by an approved adult. For phone funding, ConnectNetwork handles prepaid accounts.
