How to Visit Lockhart Corrections Facility, TX (TX)

You'll need to create your own account in the TDCJ Online Visitation Scheduler. Facility staff can't do this for you. They can help with certain updates (like correcting names or addresses) after your account exists, but the fastest path is to set up your account first, then reach out if you need help fixing details.

When scheduling, the system asks you to choose a visit type: Regular, Contact, or Video/Tablet. Not every type is available in every situation. What you can request depends on your relationship to the inmate, the facility's visitation setup, and the inmate's current privileges. If you don't see the option you expected, it may not be available for that person at that time.

Steps to Follow

• ✓ Create your TDCJ Online Visitation Scheduler account yourself (staff cannot do this step for you).
• ✓ Log in and start the scheduling process once your account is set up.
• ✓ Choose the visit type when prompted (Regular, Contact, or Video/Tablet), and expect that some types may not be offered based on relationship, facility design, or the inmate’s visitation privileges.
• ✓ If you need help correcting account details (like name or address), contact staff after your account exists so they can assist with updates.

Before you plan your trip, confirm three things through official TDCJ resources or by contacting the facility: (1) where to create your TDCJ Online Visitation Scheduler account (you must self-register), (2) which visit types are currently available for your specific inmate (Regular, Contact, or Video/Tablet), and (3) whether there are any inmate-specific limits on visitation privileges that could affect what you can schedule.
