How to Visit Tom Green County Jail (TX)
Visiting someone at Tom Green County Jail comes down to two options: online video visits through NCIC or in-person visits that use a sign-up slip system. Here's how the schedules work and what to bring so you don't get turned away at the door.
Tom Green County Jail offers video visitation through the NCIC Video Visitation website. Online visits are available every day across three time blocks: 6:00 am to 11:00 am, 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, and 7:00 pm to 11:59 pm.
Face-to-face visitation runs on a sign-up slip system, so timing matters. Slips become available at 7:00 am and 4:00 pm, and an officer starts signing visitors up at 8:30 am (morning) and 6:30 pm (evening). Visitation doors open at 9:00 am and 7:00 pm for the first round of visits. You'll need your sign-up slip and your ID in hand when those doors open.
Bring a picture ID to check in. The jail accepts a valid Driver's License, a state-issued ID card, or a Military ID. If you're bringing anyone under 17, they must be accompanied by an adult and can only visit during the evening period. For group size: morning visits allow up to four adult visitors, evening visits also allow four adults, and there's no limit on the number of children.

Before you plan around video visitation, confirm that Tom Green County Jail is still using the NCIC Video Visitation website. Double-check the daily time blocks too (6:00 am to 11:00 am, 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, and 7:00 pm to 11:59 pm). Online schedules can shift, and it's much easier to adjust plans at home than after you've already blocked off your day.
For face-to-face visits, verify the timing for each step. The jail lists sign-up slips as available at 7:00 am and 4:00 pm, with an officer signing visitors up starting at 8:30 am and 6:30 pm. Visitation doors open at 9:00 am and 7:00 pm for the first round. You'll need your sign-up slip and ID when those doors open, so confirm all of this before heading out.
If you're traveling in from out of town, confirm the ID and visitor rules before you leave. The jail requires a picture ID (valid Driver's License, state-issued ID card, or Military ID). Also check how your group fits the limits: morning visits allow four adult visitors, evening visits allow four adults with no limit on the number of children. Anyone under 17 must be with an adult and can only visit during the evening period.
