Before You Mail That Letter to Victoria County Jail: Addressing & Content Rules

On the envelope, write the person's full name and their CR number. Mail it to Victoria County Jail at 101 N Glass Street, Victoria, Texas 77901.

Write both addresses clearly - mailing and return - on the same side of the envelope. If staff can't read them quickly, your letter may get held up or rejected during screening.

Don’t skip the return address: Letters with no return address aren’t acceptable and may be rejected.

Keep the envelope clean. Drawings or any writing beyond the addresses will get your letter rejected.

Inside, stick to a regular letter. Victoria County Jail won't accept printed drawings, pages torn from books or puzzles, or computer printouts.

Anything considered contraband or a security threat will get the whole mailing rejected. Skip oversized items too: posters, greeting cards larger than standard size, and anything with electronics, pop-ups, metal, or rope. Include these, and your mail comes back.
