Dallam County Jail Visitation

The ability to visit and/or talk on the phone with inmates is usually a matter of great concern to friends and family members. To avoid the inconvenience and disappointment of a canceled visit, it is recommended that visitors contact the jail to confirm the latest visitation guidelines.

In general, anyone over the age of 18 who is not on felony probation and has been included on the inmate’s list of approved visitors is able to participate in a jail visit. The visitor must produce a valid photo ID issued by the government.

Sometimes applicants for visitation are required to submit to a background check. Visitation is denied to individuals with warrants or, if allowed to visit, they will be arrested upon arrival at the jail. In most cases, the jail will deny visitation to individuals with a past felony conviction, regardless of parole or probation status.

Inmates are limited to two visits per week, and there can be as many as two adults at each visit.
