Main Jail: Inmate Visit Registration and Information

Visitation:
Each inmate is authorized two (2) one-hour social visits per week, Sunday through Saturday. Visits take place from 7:00 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. and from 5:00 p.m. until 11:00 p.m. Visits are not permitted during mealtime, which is 2:30 p.m. until 5:00 p.m. The last visit will be registered no later than 10:00 p.m. All visitors must leave the visit area by 11:00 p.m. No more than three (3) people, including infants and children, are allowed to visit at one time. Valid identification must be presented in order to visit. You will only be allowed to visit one inmate per visit.

Weekend visit days are usually very crowded at the Main Jail. Visitors should plan for a potential delay. Out of town visitors should plan accordingly.

Sentenced inmate workers (3W) at the Main Jail may receive three (3) one-hour social visits per week, Sunday through Saturday. Visitation rules apply, please review above paragraph.

ONLY your identification, keys and small wallet will be allowed in the visit area. ALL other items, including purses, cell phones and backpacks will need to be secured prior to visiting.

All visitors are subject to search and metal detection scan. Failure to submit to these conditions shall be grounds for denial to visit. No person released from the Main Jail or the Rio Cosumnes Correctional Facility within a period of thirty days will be allowed to visit another person in custody without the consent of the Jail Commander or watch supervisor. No person having been previously convicted of a felony and confined in any State prison in this State shall be allowed to visit a person in custody at the Main Jail or access this facility without consent of the Jail Commander or watch supervisor pursuant to Penal Code section 4571.

At least one of the following forms of valid identification is required by everyone over the age of eighteen requesting to visit an inmate:

  • Valid Driver’s License (any U.S. State) and Mexico
  • Valid California I.D. Card
  • Valid Government Employee I.D. Card with picture (i.e. Military I.D.)
  • Valid Passport

Age Limits for Visitors:
Adult visitors must be 18 years old. All visitors under the age of eighteen must be accompanied by their parent or legal guardian. Adults must stay with the minors at all times and may not visit someone else during the same visit. Proof of relationship (i.e. birth certificate or guardianship papers) may be required at the scheduling officer’s discretion. Emancipated minors with proof of emancipation and valid ID (see below) will be allowed to visit.

Dress Code:
The dress code is directed at both male and female visitors. The following clothing is not allowed: tube tops, see through mesh materials, short shorts, micro mini skirts, tank tops with thin straps, backless or sleeveless tops, midriff or cutoff shirts or bathing tops. In addition, any clothing that is excessively provocative or which promotes violence, hate, drug use, profanity, sex acts or gangs is not allowed. All visitors are also required to wear footwear (shoes, sandals or boots).

Release of Personal Property:
In order for the facility to release an inmate’s property to you, you must complete a Property Release form. These forms are available at the Public Lobby at the registration table or with the Front Counter scheduling officers. A VALID California driver’s license or VALID California I.D. card are the ONLY acceptable forms of identification for a property release.

After completing the form, you must submit the completed form to the officer at the Public Counter. You must take ALL of the inmate’s personal property, not just portions of it. You may not receive the inmate’s clothing.

Once you have submitted the Property Release form, you MUST wait in the Public Lobby for the property to be delivered to you.

NOTE: Property releases may take an undetermined length of time depending upon the floor's activities and the officer's duties at the time of request.

Family Emergencies:
In case of a serious family emergency, contact the Main Jail Social Workers at 874-6345 or the Jail Chaplain at 874-7724, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. through 3:30 p.m.
