How to Contact an Inmate at Miami County Jail, IN (IN)

Inmates at this facility cannot receive incoming phone calls. If you call and ask to speak with someone in custody, staff will not transfer you.

If you need to leave an urgent message for a detainee, call (765) 689-8920, ext. 5495. Be ready to provide the detainee’s full name and A-number, plus your name and a phone number where you can be reached, so staff can pass the message along.

Steps to Follow

• ✓ Call (765) 689-8920, ext. 5495 to leave an urgent message.
• ✓ Provide the detainee’s full name and A-number.
• ✓ Leave your name and the telephone number where you can be reached.

• ✓ Plan around the weekly limit: each inmate is eligible for one 20-minute visit per week.
• ✓ Visitation runs every day of the week (Sunday through Saturday).
• ✓ If you are over 18, bring a valid photo ID and make sure you are on the inmate’s visitor list, or you will not be eligible to visit.
• ✓ If you served time in Miami County Jail within the last 60 days, you cannot visit unless you are visiting a parent, sibling, spouse, or child.
• ✓ If you are bringing someone under 18, they must be accompanied by an adult.
• ✓ Make sure the visit starts prior to 8 p.m.

Before you call, double-check that the urgent-message number, extension, and the information you need to leave (full name, A-number, and your callback number) are still current. Phone prompts and procedures can change.

Confirm the current visitation rules before you go. Check that visits are still offered Sunday through Saturday, that each inmate is limited to one 20-minute visit per week, and that visit times must start before 8 p.m. Ask about eligibility details that could affect you at the door: valid photo ID for visitors over 18, being on the inmate's visitor list, minors needing an accompanying adult, and the 60-day restriction for recent former inmates (with family exceptions).
