How to Visit Lee County-Tupelo Jail, MS (FL)

In-person visits at Lee County-Tupelo Jail are non-contact. You'll speak through a glass partition using a phone, and each appointment lasts 15 minutes. Before making plans, confirm you're on the inmate's approved visitation list. Staff check names at the door, and if you're not on the list, you won't get in.

Visitation days are assigned by housing pod. The posted schedule assigns Monday to Pods A and B, Tuesday to Pods C and D, and Wednesday to Pods E and F (plus Male Holding). This matters because you can only visit on the day assigned to your person's pod. Confirm which pod they're in before scheduling.

1. Call to set the appointment. Schedule your in-person visit by calling (662) 432-2600 Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
2. Book at least a day ahead. Appointments must be made at least 24 hours in advance, so do not wait until the day you want to visit.

1. Arrive early for check-in. You must sign in at least 15 minutes before your scheduled visitation time.
2. Bring proper photo ID. If you do not sign in with proper ID at least 15 minutes early, you will not be allowed to visit.

1. Plan around the visitation windows. Visitation hours are 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM and 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM.
2. Know what the visit will be like. In-person visits are no-contact, done through a glass partition with a phone, and the appointment is 15 minutes.

• ✓ Confirm which pod the inmate is in before you schedule, since pods are assigned to specific visitation days (for example, Monday: Pods A and B; Tuesday: Pods C and D; Wednesday: Pods E and F and Male Holding).

• ✓ If you cannot visit in person, use City Tele Coin video visitation (available daily from 8:00 AM to 10:30 PM) and complete registration through the provider.

Before you go, confirm two things with the jail: the scheduling phone line hours (Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM) and the in-person visitation windows (1:00 PM to 4:00 PM and 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM). Hours can shift, especially around holidays or staffing changes.

Double-check the inmate's current pod assignment and the pod-by-day visitation schedule before you book. The schedule is posted by pod (Pods A and B on Monday, Pods C and D on Tuesday, Pods E and F plus Male Holding on Wednesday). Picking the wrong day means losing your appointment.

Planning to use video visitation through City Tele Coin? Confirm the current registration requirements and available hours (video visits run seven days a week, 8:00 AM to 10:30 PM). Verify any account details with both the provider and the facility before counting on a specific time slot.
