How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
To visit at Jefferson County Correctional Facility, you must schedule ahead of time—before the day you plan to come—by calling the Visitation Office at 409-726-2565. In-person visitation runs Wednesday through Sunday, 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Inmates can have two 30-minute visits per week. The visitation kiosk is open during the same hours for deposits. Inside the visitation building, you can only bring your ID, keys, and cash or a credit card for the kiosk—cellphones are prohibited. Once you arrive, stay inside the Visitation Building until your visit ends, or staff will terminate your visit. Visits are a privilege and can be restricted or canceled for rule violations or security incidents.
