Navarro County Jail , TX

Visiting at Navarro County Jail is a privilege—the facility can restrict, pause, or cancel visits for rule violations, lockdowns, security incidents, or health emergencies. Options include regular in-person/contact visits and remote video or tablet visits. Most non-attorney visits may be monitored or recorded, while attorney–client visits are handled separately. Before booking, you'll need to create an online visitation account, verify it through an email code, and complete any required background questionnaire. Remote video visits are scheduled through the jail's approved video system, though availability varies by housing unit. The scheduler may hide dates if the inmate already has a visit that week, and some visit types aren't available to every inmate.

Navarro County Jail uses Texas' centralized digital mail process for most personal letters. Your envelope goes to an offsite processor where pages are screened, scanned, and delivered to the inmate's secure tablet—not as loose paper. Legal/privileged mail and some publications (like items shipped from verified publishers or approved sellers) are handled directly by the facility under a separate review process. To avoid delays: clearly print the inmate's full legal name and ID/booking number, include your complete return address, and add the facility/unit name if you know it. Follow any paper-size or page-limit rules. Skip contraband—no cash, loose stamps, food, or other prohibited items. Books and magazines should only come from publishers or approved vendors.
