How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
Visiting at Monmouth County Corrections is straightforward if you plan ahead. All visitors must be at least 18 and present a valid U.S. government-issued photo ID at check-in, then pass through a metal detector. Cell phones, cigarettes, lighters, matches, food, drinks, bags, weapons, and other prohibited items aren't allowed in the Visit Hall. Each inmate can receive one visit per day, and each approved visitor may visit one male and one female inmate daily. Bringing a minor? Only parents or legal guardians can do so, and you'll need the child's original birth certificate when you arrive. Dress rules are strict: no heavy jackets or overcoats in the visiting room (lockers are available), no revealing or transparent clothing, shoulders and midriff must be covered, no flip-flops, and no underwire bras. Visits are monitored—rule violations can get you denied entry or removed.
