Bringing Children to Visit at Tooele County: Documented Legal Guardian Requirements
Planning to bring a child to visit someone at Tooele County Jail? Here's the key rule: minors can't visit alone. A documented legal guardian must accompany them.
The rule is simple: any minor visiting an inmate must be accompanied by their documented legal guardian. If you're bringing a child, you'll go through the visit process together. Be ready to prove you're the guardian when you check in.
Registering for an on-site video visit in the detention center lobby? Bring a valid government-issued photo ID. There's also an age requirement - you must be over 18 with valid ID to register in the lobby. So the adult accompanying the minor needs to meet these requirements too.

Practical Checklist
- ✓ Bring the documentation that shows you are the minor’s legal guardian (a documented legal guardian must accompany any minor requesting to visit)
- ✓ Bring your valid, government-issued photo ID for lobby registration
- ✓ Make sure the registering adult is over 18 (required for the lobby registration method)
- ✓ Build in extra time for check-in, since staff will need to verify your ID and guardian status
On-site visits can be scheduled Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, depending on where the inmate is housed. Need a same-day visit? Call at 8:30 AM that morning to schedule it.
- Call the detention center before you go - confirm what they’ll accept as “documented” proof that you’re the legal guardian.
- Ask what you should bring for the minor’s visit - that way you don’t arrive and find out you’re missing something.
- Make a backup plan if you can’t get documentation in time - the rule is that a documented legal guardian must accompany any minor requesting to visit an inmate.
