Elkhart County Inmate Search
Information regarding inmates currently incarcerated in the Elkhart County Jail is made available as a public service on the Elkhart County Inmate Search website in the interest of public safety.
The County Jail updates the website regularly to ensure the completeness and accuracy of the information. However, as the information may change quickly, you may not get the current status regarding an inmate. To get the most recent information, try to refresh the website periodically.
It is extremely important to note that an inmate’s current incarceration does not necessarily indicate they have been found guilty of a crime.

Elkhart County Jail Visitation
There are two ways of visitation: on-site visits and remote visits.
To schedule an on-site or remote visit, visitors should fill out the registration form on the Securus website or in the lobby 24 hours prior to the scheduled visit. A valid government photo identification must be presented. Each inmate is limited to one on-site visit per day. Only one adult and one child are allowed at the visitation booth at a time. The number of visits allowed per week depends on the inmate’s classification, which can be answered by the Corrections officers at the front desk.
Remote visits are charged a fee of $6.95 for a 20-minute visit or $13.90 for a 40-minute visit. Visitors can also subscribe to Unlimited Visitation for $19.99/month (promotional pricing). The Unlimited Visitation allows as many as two 20-minute visits or two 40-minute visits per inmate per day.
