Three Ways to Reach Hudson County Sheriff's Office (and when to use each)

Need to reach the Hudson County Sheriff's Office? You have three options. For general questions - or if you're not sure which unit handles your issue - start with the main phone numbers: (201) 795-6300 or (201) 915-1300. You can also email info@hudsoncountysheriff.org. If you already know which department you need, skip the general line and use the telephone directory to call the right extension directly.

The general contact lines work best when your question is broad, you're calling for the first time, or you're unsure which bureau handles your issue. The Sheriff's Office lists two main numbers - (201) 795-6300 and (201) 915-1300 - plus a public email at info@hudsoncountysheriff.org. These are good starting points when you need someone to point you in the right direction.

When you need a specific department - or want to avoid being transferred multiple times - the telephone directory is your fastest route. It lists bureaus and units (like the Detective Bureau, Patrol Bureau, and Process Bureau) with direct extensions tied to the main Sheriff's Office numbers. The contact page specifically recommends using the directory for immediate response, which tells you this is the "right door" for most specific requests.

1. Check the telephone directory first - The Sheriff’s Office directs people to use the directory to reach the appropriate contact for immediate response.
2. Write down the exact extension you need - Having the extension in front of you makes the call faster and helps you avoid repeat transfers.
3. Call with the goal of reaching that extension - Starting with the directory keeps your call focused on the right unit from the beginning.

1. Call a main number - Use (201) 795-6300 or (201) 915-1300 when you don’t yet have the right extension.
2. Ask for the correct extension for your issue - The Sheriff’s Office points people to the telephone directory for immediate response, so getting the right extension is the quickest way to follow up.
3. Record the extension you’re given - Once you have it, you can call back and reach the right contact faster next time.
4. Use email for non-urgent follow-ups - If calling isn’t working, you can also contact the Sheriff’s Office at info@hudsoncountysheriff.org.
