How to visit, scheduling, dress code, and visitor requirements
Visitation at Georgia county facilities works in two steps: get approved as a visitor, then request a scheduled visit through the department's online system. Session length and limits vary. Many facilities offer in-person visits on weekends and state holidays, though some housing tiers or special-status inmates may have different visiting days or weekday appointment windows. Before your first visit, complete the Visitation Request Form and wait for approval. Once approved, use the online scheduling tool to reserve a time slot. Bring a valid government-issued photo ID on the day of your visit, and be ready for a dress-code and item check. Plan ahead—slots fill quickly.
