Find a Las Vegas Inmate in the Right Jail System
A Las Vegas jail inmate search can be confusing because there is no government entity called “Las Vegas County Jail.” Las Vegas is in Clark County, Nevada, and people arrested in the Las Vegas Valley may be booked into different detention systems depending on the arresting agency and jurisdiction.
Which Las Vegas-area jail should you search?
Clark County specifically advises that an arrested person may be housed within the jurisdiction of the arresting agency. Searching only CCDC can therefore miss someone who is actually in a municipal detention center.
| Likely custody location | When to check it | Official contact/search |
|---|---|---|
| Clark County Detention Center (CCDC) 330 S. Casino Center Blvd., Las Vegas, NV 89101 | Clark County or many LVMPD-related bookings; current CCDC custody. | CCDC inmate search (702) 671-3900 |
| City of Las Vegas Detention Center | The city states that misdemeanor arrests within Las Vegas city limits are booked into its detention center. | Detention Services (702) 229-6444, option 3 |
| North Las Vegas Community Correctional Center | Check when the arrest occurred in North Las Vegas or involved its police/court system. | North Las Vegas offender search (702) 633-1400 |
| Henderson Detention Center | Check for Henderson arrests and municipal custody. | Henderson inmate search (702) 267-4652 |
| Nevada Department of Corrections | Use after a person has been sentenced and transferred into Nevada state-prison custody. | NDOC offender information |
Practical rule: a recent arrest normally calls for a city or county jail search. NDOC says it generally does not hold information on people who were only arrested and are still awaiting trial or sentencing.
How to search the Clark County jail roster
- Open the official CCDC In-Custody Search.
- Use only one search field at a time: inmate name, inmate ID, or Justice Court case number.
- For a name search, enter at least two letters of the last name. Clark County recommends entering more than two when possible to reduce unrelated results.
- Submit the search and review all possible matches before choosing a record.
- Open the matching custody result and compare the inmate ID, age, arrest date, case information and other available identifiers.
- Review charges, bail, detainers, housing and scheduled court information where displayed.
- If the information will be used for bail, travel, court or another important decision, confirm the latest status by calling (702) 671-3900.
Our separate CCDC jail inmate search guide focuses specifically on the Clark County Detention Center search fields and roster.
What information can the CCDC inmate roster show?
| Roster field | What it means |
|---|---|
| Inmate ID | The detention-system identifier used to distinguish the inmate and for many jail services. |
| Name, age, race and sex | Identity information useful for separating people with similar names. |
| Case number | A court-related identifier that can be used for additional case research. |
| Charge | The charge associated with the custody record. It should not be treated as proof of guilt. |
| Arrest date | Helps identify the current custody event. |
| Detainer | May indicate another jurisdiction or legal hold that could affect release. |
| Cash or surety bail | Available bail information for the case when applicable. |
| Housing | The inmate’s current housing information when publicly displayed. |
| Scheduled court information | May include department, action, hearing date or hearing time. |
Clark County states that the public search contains people currently in CCDC custody and that information can change during the day. The online record is useful for locating a person, but it is not an official certified criminal-history record.
If the inmate does not appear
Do not assume a person was released simply because the CCDC search returns no result.
- Very recent arrest: identification, fingerprinting and booking may still be in progress.
- Wrong jurisdiction: check the City of Las Vegas, North Las Vegas or Henderson systems.
- Under age 18: Clark County says inmates under 18 are not displayed in the public CCDC search.
- Protective custody: these inmates are not displayed publicly.
- John/Jane Doe: CCDC advises callers to contact the information line when identification is an issue. A Doe cannot post bail until properly identified through the detention fingerprint process.
- Released or transferred: a person may no longer appear on a current-custody roster.
- State-prison transfer: search the Nevada Department of Corrections after transfer into state custody.
- Name mismatch: retry with the legal surname, different spelling, former surname or additional letters.
Las Vegas Detention Center inmate search
The City of Las Vegas Detention Center is separate from CCDC. The city states that individuals arrested on misdemeanor offenses within Las Vegas city limits are booked into its detention operation.
Use the city’s official Detention Services page, which provides its inmate-search interface and related jail services. For inmate information, call (702) 229-6444, option 3.
The Las Vegas Valley contains several independent custody systems. If an arrest happened across a jurisdictional boundary, the booking location can differ from what a family member expects based only on the word “Las Vegas.”
Bail and release information
Clark County Detention Center
CCDC Pre-Trial Services collects bail and surety bonds for Clark County Justice Court matters 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and handles District Court bail after 5 p.m. under the county’s published procedures.

Check current CCDC bail instructions.
City of Las Vegas Detention Center
The city states that bail can be posted 24 hours a day, seven days a week online or through its bail window. Its published bail hotline is (702) 229-6460. Visa, MasterCard, Discover and cash are listed as accepted methods; American Express is not accepted, and exact cash is required because the window does not make change.
The city does not publish exact inmate release times for safety reasons. Its current Detention Services page states that inmates are released at 3300 Stewart Ave.
CCDC visitation rules
Clark County requires visitors to register online or at CCDC before scheduling social visits. Current registration requirements include a valid photo ID and email address.
| Visit length | 25 minutes for social onsite and remote video visits |
|---|---|
| Remote visit cost | $4.75 per 25-minute visit, effective April 6, 2026 |
| Monday–Friday social hours | 7:00 a.m.–10:30 a.m. and 7:00 p.m.–11:00 p.m. |
| Saturday–Sunday social hours | 7:00 a.m.–10:30 a.m., 12:30 p.m.–3:00 p.m., and 7:00 p.m.–11:00 p.m. |
| Onsite visitor limit | Three total visitors, including children and infants |
| ID | Visitors over age 13 must provide proper identification |
Visits can be affected by housing assignment, inmate behavior, lockdown, counts, staffing and available space. Clark County currently says inmates in good standing may receive two 25-minute remote visits per week in total.
Verify the current CCDC visitation schedule before traveling.
City of Las Vegas video visits
The city uses video visitation and directs visitors to Securus Video Connect. Its current instructions say visits must be scheduled 48 hours in advance, are conducted in 20-minute intervals, and require current government-issued identification.
Sending money and commissary funds
CCDC deposits
Clark County uses TouchPay for electronic inmate-account deposits. Before sending money, confirm:
- the inmate’s full name;
- the correct inmate ID number; and
- that the person is still held by CCDC.
The county identifies CCDC’s TouchPay facility number as 289101. Deposits can also be made through a lobby kiosk. Clark County warns that funds sent to the wrong inmate account are the depositor’s responsibility.
CCDC’s inmate handbook states that commissary ordering depends on the inmate’s housing-unit schedule and that current order forms, prices and delivery schedules are available through inmate kiosks.
Current CCDC inmate-funds instructions.
City of Las Vegas deposits
The City of Las Vegas currently directs friends and family to Access Corrections for inmate-fund deposits, including online/app deposits and telephone service at 1-866-345-1884.
Mailing a CCDC inmate
For CCDC social mail, use the inmate’s correct name and inmate ID:
Inmate Name – Inmate ID NumberClark County Detention Center
PO Box 43059
Las Vegas, NV 89116
CCDC’s published rules require a return address. The detention center currently permits white envelopes and white paper, with blue ink, black ink or pencil. Social mail is screened. The inmate handbook also explains that incoming mail may be opened, searched and scanned, with a scanned copy delivered to the inmate.
Legal mail and qualifying official documents use the physical detention-center address:
Inmate Name – Inmate ID NumberClark County Detention Center
330 S. Casino Center Blvd.
Las Vegas, NV 89101
Review the current CCDC mail rules before sending anything.
City of Las Vegas inmate mail
The City of Las Vegas uses a separate mail-processing system. Its current instructions direct non-legal mail through Pigeonly’s processing center:
Inmate Name – Booking NumberLas Vegas Department of Public Safety
Detention Center – 1130
PO Box 96777
Las Vegas, NV 89193
The city states that non-legal mail is opened, screened, scanned and then printed for delivery. Legal mail and approved publisher materials follow different instructions, so do not use CCDC’s mailing address for a City of Las Vegas inmate.
Can you call an inmate?
CCDC inmates cannot receive ordinary incoming calls. The detention center uses ViaPath for inmate telephone services. If there is an emergency, Clark County directs callers to (702) 671-3900.
As of June 1, 2026, Clark County changed how friends and family fund telephone/tablet services and directs them toward the inmate’s TouchPay commissary account and available ViaPath/GettingOut options. Check the current inmate telephone page before adding funds.
How to check Las Vegas court cases and court dates
A jail roster answers a custody question. A court system is better for filed charges, hearings and case progress.
- Find the inmate in the CCDC or city detention system first.
- Record the person’s correct legal name and case number.
- For Las Vegas Justice Court matters, open the Las Vegas Justice Court Records Inquiry.
- For Eighth Judicial District Court criminal matters, use the District Court Records Inquiry.
- Compare the case number and defendant identity with the custody record.
- Use the court rather than a jail listing when you need the filed case status or eventual disposition.
Sealed, protected and other legally restricted records may not appear in public online systems.
When to use the Nevada prison search instead
If the person has been sentenced and moved from local custody into a Nevada state prison, use the Nevada Department of Corrections offender system. NDOC itself directs people looking for a recent Las Vegas-area arrest back to the Clark County/local jail system.
| What you need | Best starting point |
|---|---|
| Recent Las Vegas arrest | CCDC or the appropriate city detention center |
| Current CCDC custody | Clark County In-Custody Search |
| City misdemeanor booking | City of Las Vegas Detention Services |
| Filed criminal case or hearing | Justice Court or District Court |
| Transferred state prisoner | Nevada Department of Corrections |
If the arrest occurred outside Nevada, use the jurisdiction where the person was actually booked. For nearby cross-state searches, see our Arizona jail inmate search guide. If you are researching a California booking instead, our Orange County jail inmate search guide explains that county’s process.
Use Las Vegas inmate information responsibly
An arrest, jail booking or listed criminal charge does not establish guilt. People in jail may be awaiting trial, held on another jurisdiction’s warrant, serving a local sentence or later released without a conviction. Confirm identity carefully and use the court record when a final case outcome matters.
Custody, bail, housing and hearing information can change quickly. For a live action such as posting bail, driving to a facility or scheduling a visit, use the official link provided in the relevant section immediately before taking that action.
Las Vegas Jail Inmate Search FAQs
1. Is there a Las Vegas County Jail?
No. Las Vegas is located in Clark County, Nevada. People searching for a “Las Vegas County Jail” usually mean the Clark County Detention Center or one of the separate city detention facilities in the Las Vegas Valley.
2. How do I search for an inmate in Las Vegas?
Start with the official Clark County Detention Center inmate search. Search by last name, inmate ID or Justice Court case number. If no matching inmate appears, check the City of Las Vegas, North Las Vegas and Henderson detention systems.
3. What information do I need for a CCDC inmate search?
You can search using the inmate’s name, inmate ID or Justice Court case number. Clark County requires at least two letters of the last name for a name search and recommends using additional letters when possible.
4. Why can’t I find someone who was arrested in Las Vegas?
The booking may still be processing, the person may be held in another local jurisdiction, or the person may have been released or transferred. CCDC also does not publicly display inmates under 18 or people in protective custody.
5. Does the Las Vegas jail roster show charges and bail?
CCDC records can display case and charge information, arrest date, detainers, cash or surety bail and scheduled court information when available. Bail and custody details should be confirmed before payment because they can change.
6. How can I confirm whether an inmate is still at CCDC?
Check the official in-custody search and, when current status is important, call the Clark County Detention Center information line at (702) 671-3900.
7. How do I visit a Clark County Detention Center inmate?
Register through the official Clark County visitation system with the required identification and email address, then schedule the visit online. Current social onsite and remote visits are 25 minutes, subject to housing status and facility rules.
8. How do I send money to a Las Vegas jail inmate?
First identify the correct jail. CCDC uses TouchPay for inmate-account deposits, while the City of Las Vegas currently directs users to Access Corrections. Never send money until you have verified the correct inmate ID or booking number and facility.
9. Where can I find a Las Vegas inmate’s court date?
CCDC may display scheduled court information, but use the Las Vegas Justice Court or Eighth Judicial District Court public case system to verify court proceedings associated with the case.
10. When should I use the Nevada DOC inmate search?
Use the Nevada Department of Corrections search when the person has been sentenced and transferred into Nevada state-prison custody. For a recent arrest or pretrial detention in Las Vegas, start with the local jail systems instead.
