How to Search for an Inmate in Montgomery County

The official inmate search tool for Montgomery County is the Montgomery County Sheriff Inmate Search (AL). This free government-operated service is your only verified source. Never pay a third-party website for information available for free here.

  1. 1
    Open the official inmate search portal

    Go to https://www.montgomerysheriff.com/corrections/inmate-search/ in your web browser. This is the official Montgomery County Sheriff Inmate Search (AL) operated by Montgomery County. It is completely free. Never pay any third-party website — the official search costs nothing.

  2. 2
    Complete any security verification

    Some portals require a CAPTCHA or verification checkbox. Complete it if prompted — this is standard government security to prevent automated access.

  3. 3
    Enter the person's information

    This portal lets you search by: full name, booking number, date of birth. Enter the full legal last name first. Adding the first name narrows results significantly. Always use the legal name — not a nickname.

  4. 4

    Click Search or Submit. A list of matching inmates in Montgomery County custody will appear. Confirm the correct person by checking name and date of birth.

  5. 5
    Click the person's name for full booking details

    Click the name to open the full booking record: current facility, booking number, arrest date, charges, and bail amount if set.

  6. 6
    Record the booking number

    Write the booking number down immediately. You will need it for visits, phone call accounts, mail, commissary deposits, and all facility communications.

  7. 7
    Note the data update schedule

    This portal updates every 4 hours. If searching right after an arrest, the record may not appear yet — new bookings typically take 2–8 hours to process.

  8. 8
    If no results are found

    The person may not be processed yet, may have been released, or may be in a municipal jail rather than the county facility. Call Montgomery County at (334) 832-4980 for live staff assistance.
