Metropolitan Detention Center

Before visiting Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC), you'll need to create an online visitation account. Once that's set up, you can book visits during the facility's normal visitation hours. MDC also offers video visits through GTL, which require a separate online GTL account. Already using GTL for inmate tablet messaging? You may not need a new account, since both services can share the same login. Before your visit, make sure you're on the inmate's approved visitor list, complete any required visitor application or forms, and bring a valid government-issued photo ID. Policies and formats can change, so confirm current hours and rules through MDC's published contact information.

Metropolitan Detention Center uses GTL for video visitation, so you'll need an online GTL account before scheduling a visit. During signup, GTL asks for your name, address, phone number, email, and a password. One key detail: your first name must match your government-issued ID exactly, or you could face delays. The whole process typically takes less than five minutes. Already using GTL for inmate tablet messaging? You can use the same login for video visits. No separate visitation account needed. Your password must be at least eight characters and include one number, one uppercase letter, and one lowercase letter. Once your account is active, you can schedule visits online during the facility's normal visitation hours. Be ready to show ID when requested.

Metropolitan Detention Center (NM) lists Access Corrections as a service option for sending funds, posting bail, and making parole or probation payments. Families typically add money through an approved third-party processor (online or by phone), a lobby kiosk, or by mailing a money order or cashier's check. Whichever method you choose, have the inmate's full name and facility inmate ID ready. Enter both exactly in the format the facility requires. Planning to mail funds? Follow the facility's specific format and any sender restrictions, and use the correct mailing address listed by MDC. Procedures and accepted payment types can vary, so check MDC's money page or the approved vendor instructions before sending anything.
