How to Get Approved as a Visitor at Thomas County Jail (step‑by‑step)

You can't schedule or show up for a visit until you're on the approved list. The process starts with one document: the Visitation Request Form. Georgia DOC posts this form on its visitation pages - that's your starting point.

  1. Download the Visitation Request Form - Get the form from the Georgia DOC visitation pages.
  2. Fill it out completely - Completing this form is the first step to becoming an approved visitor.

Thomas County Jail is located at 921 Smith Ave, Thomasville, GA 31792. Once you've filled out the Visitation Request Form, submit it to the facility where the inmate is housed (the facility listed on their record).

Not an immediate family member? If you're applying as a significant-relationship visitor, the process works differently. The offender has to initiate the request from inside - you can't start this one on your own.

  1. Confirm the offender is initiating the request - For significant-relationship visitors (non-immediate family), the offender must start the request.
  2. Have the offender complete the Significant Relationship Visitor Application - The offender fills out the “Significant Relationship Visitor Application for Visitation Privilege.”
  3. Have the offender send it for review - The offender sends the completed application to the Warden/Superintendent for review.

What happens next: The Warden/Superintendent reviews significant-relationship applications, then notifies the offender of approval or denial. Your loved one is responsible for passing that decision along to you.
