The Cobb County Sheriff’s Office uses video conferencing to conduct both public and professional visits. Visits are scheduled to allow for a more effective and streamlined process.

PRIOR to scheduling a visit, each visitor must complete the registration process.

You can expedite the process by:

To complete the registration process, you must present your valid government issued photo identification to Visitation Center staff during the hours of 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M. Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your first visit to complete the registration process. All visitors, 18 years of age and older, will be photographed. Once registration is complete, a visit can be scheduled.

You may also skip the online/kiosk pre-registration step and complete the registration process at the Visitation Center during the hours of 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M.

Visitors are NOT subjected to a security screening prior to an inmate visit, although all laws and rules are enforced. Parking is conveniently located adjacent to the Visitation Center.
