Topic Overviews

Visitation

Nolan County Jail offers both in-person and online visits every day from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Inmates typically become eligible for visitation after 48 hours in custody, unless visitation has been suspended for disciplinary reasons. If you're over 17, bring valid, unexpired photo ID showing your date of birth—expired or missing ID means no visit. Visitors under 17 must be accompanied by a parent, legal guardian, or legal counsel, and the adult needs documentation verifying the relationship. Dress code is strict: no tank tops, tube tops, sheer or low-cut shirts, or shorts/skirts more than 2 inches above the knee. Leave food and drinks at home—none allowed in the lobby. Lockers are available for personal items. Cell phones and electronics can't be used during visitation. Bringing contraband (phones, drugs, alcohol, weapons, cash, or tobacco) can result in arrest or felony charges.

Features can vary by housing unit, so check the inmate's facility page or the vendor portal for specifics.

Mail & Letters

Mail at Nolan County Jail is delivered Monday through Friday—no weekend delivery. Personal correspondence gets scanned and inspected for contraband before reaching the inmate. Legal mail is handled separately when clearly labeled "Legal Mail." Don't send cash or personal checks. Money in any form other than money orders or cashier's checks counts as contraband and won't be delivered. Skip mailing paper, stamps, envelopes, postcards, or writing supplies—inmates can buy these through commissary. If unauthorized items arrive in the mail, the jail may place them in the inmate's property, return them to the sender, or dispose of them depending on what it is.

Sending Money

You can deposit funds for an inmate at Nolan County Jail using the kiosk in the Nolan County Sheriff's Office & Jail lobby or online through JailATM. Commissary prices are comparable to convenience store prices. Any U.S. currency someone has when booked goes into an account under the inmate's name, but personal or company checks aren't accepted for deposits. Inmates receive commissary order forms once a week and need money on their account when they submit an order. Available items include snacks, hygiene products, stationery, reading glasses, phone time, and over-the-counter medication—all delivered to housing units. If an inmate's balance drops below $2, they receive a weekly indigent package with basic supplies. Inmates can't transfer funds to other inmates. Account funds may be used for fees and charges. After release, remaining funds are returned as an institutional check, and commissary items are held for three days.
