Scheduling a visit is straightforward once you know the rules. At LaSalle — Jefferson County Downtown Jail in Beaumont, on-site visits require an appointment, and a few timing details can catch people off guard.
You'll need to book your visit at least 24 hours in advance. Call (409) 434-4653 to schedule - but only during weekday hours: 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Visits run in 30-minute blocks, so plan around a fixed start and end time.

Two timing rules to remember: appointments can only be made during weekday hours (Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–4:30 p.m.), and visits are locked into 30-minute blocks. That fixed length makes planning transportation and childcare easier - but it also means showing up late costs you time.
Heads up: Visits are scheduled in 30-minute blocks, so your start and end times are set.
- Call the visitation scheduling line - Dial (409) 434-4653.
- Call during the scheduling window - Appointments are made Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Most scheduling issues come down to timing. Try to book less than 24 hours out? You'll be turned away. Call outside the scheduling window (8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday)? You'll have to wait until business hours to get on the calendar. And since visits are 30-minute blocks, showing up late or confused about your start time means losing part of your visit. If you're denied or can't get the slot you want, ask for the next available appointment and confirm the exact time before hanging up.
If you’re denied: Call (409) 434-4653 and ask why the appointment can’t be scheduled, then rebook for the next available time.
