Step-by-Step

How to Find Someone Arrested in Volusia County

1

Search the Volusia County Corrections Inmate Roster

Start with the official Volusia County Corrections inmate search at volusiasheriff.gov. Enter the first and last name of the person you are looking for. Records typically appear within 2 to 6 hours of booking. If you cannot find them yet, try again in an hour or call the jail directly at (386) 323-3500.

2

Note the Booking Number, Charges, and Bond

Once the entry shows up, note the booking number along with the charges and the bond amount. Jail staff, bail bond agents, and defense attorneys will each ask for this information when you follow up.

3

Contact a Florida-Licensed Bail Bond Agent

If a bond amount is assigned, a bail bond agent holding a Florida DFS license can post it for a 10% premium that is kept regardless of case outcome. $5,000 bond = $500 premium. Some families pay the full cash bond to the Clerk of Courts directly, which is refundable after the case concludes.

4

Prepare for First Appearance

Per Florida Rule 3.130, first appearance must take place within 24 hours of the arrest. The 7th Judicial Circuit conducts Volusia County first appearances. The judge confirms probable cause, recites the charges, advises the defendant of rights, and sets bond (or adjusts it). With an attorney present, the bond can often be lowered day one.

After You Locate Them

What to Do Next

Once you have found your loved one in the Volusia County jail, here are the four things to handle right away.

⚖

Post Bond

A Florida-licensed bail bond agent charges 10% of the bond as a non-refundable premium. Cash bond is refundable after the case resolves regardless of outcome.

⚖️

Hire an Attorney

A defense lawyer at first appearance can argue for reduced bond or ROR. The 7th Circuit Public Defender serves qualifying defendants.

📅

Attend First Appearance

Within 24 hours of arrest per Florida Rule 3.130. The judge sets or modifies bond and reads charges. Confirm time and location with the Clerk of Courts.

📞

Set Up Communication

Before the inmate places their first call, register with the contracted phone vendor (Securus, GTL ViaPath, or ICSolutions at most Florida jails). Sign up for VINELink for automatic release notifications.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions, Volusia County Jail

Florida county jails process misdemeanor bookings in roughly 4 to 8 hours, with felonies running 8 to 14 hours because of the added warrant checks and classification steps. Fingerprinting, FCIC/NCIC scans, and a medical screen all happen during this window. Expect online records to appear 2 to 6 hours after booking completes.
Volusia County is served by the 7th Judicial Circuit of Florida. Felonies and first appearances are typically heard at the county courthouse in Daytona Beach. Misdemeanors and traffic cases are handled in County Court within the same circuit.
No. By law (Florida Sunshine Law, Chapter 119), all sheriff inmate search systems in the state are free. This site is free. Our phone line is free. Third-party sites that charge are reselling the same free public records that Volusia County Corrections publishes directly.
Commissary in Florida county jails is usually handled by a third-party service like Keefe Commissary, Access Corrections, or TouchPay. Deposits work online, by phone, or at on-site lobby kiosks. Call the jail at (386) 323-3500 or check the Volusia County Corrections website for the current contracted provider.
Direct inbound calls to the jail to reach a specific inmate are not allowed. Inmates make outbound calls only, using the facility's contracted phone vendor. Create an account with that vendor and prepay for call time to receive calls. For visitation, most Florida jails now run video visits (either on-site kiosks or remote), so check the jail's current rules before you go.
After the Clerk of Courts accepts bond, the jail typically needs 4 to 10 hours to complete release paperwork. Peak times (weekends, holidays, overnight) can push that out to 12 to 24 hours. A probation violation, ICE detainer, or warrant in another county will stop the release entirely until resolved.
Volusia County Corrections holds pretrial defendants and those sentenced to 364 days or less. If a state felony sentence exceeds one year, the inmate moves to Florida Department of Corrections custody (search at fdc.myflorida.com). Federal charges result in BOP custody (bop.gov/inmateloc). ICE detainees are housed at separate ICE facilities (locator.ice.gov).
Most Florida county jails accept first-class mail, but every item is opened and inspected before it reaches the inmate. Write the inmate's complete legal name and booking number on the outside of the envelope. Check with Volusia County Corrections for the correct mailing address format. Do not send cash, checks, gift cards, or packages; use the contracted deposit service for funds.
