Which system is holding them?

There is no single search that covers everyone in Miami-Dade County. Match the situation to the right official locator — most families start with the first one.

If the arrest was recent

Start with the local jail

For a recent local arrest, check the arresting jurisdiction’s official jail roster or custody-notification service. Housing may be at a municipal, county, regional, or contracted facility. If no record appears, ask the arresting agency or jail how to confirm the booking; do not infer the destination from distance or a facility listing.

Current Miami-Dade County official Inmate In-Custody Search service provides a public name-search for persons in county custody, with booking date/time, location, charge, bond and jail number fields in results description. A current 2026 Board-approved county Electronic Arrest Form contract states it is used by the Miami-Dade Sheriff, Corrections & Rehabilitation and municipal police departments countywide; real-time arrest information is available to MDCR before arrival at facilities, expediting booking. This supports shared arrest-processing workflow but does not prove each municipality sends every arrestee to a specific county jail.

Miami-Dade Corrections and Rehabilitation Inmate Search

Open the official search page, enter at least three characters for last name plus first name/initial, then select Search. No person-specific searches were performed.

Search covers persons in Miami-Dade County custody; people not yet transferred/entered, held by another jurisdiction or subject to legal restrictions may not appear. County search service lists Corrections HQ main number 786-263-7000, not claimed as a jail-specific phone. 2026 countywide e-Aform workflow is used by Sheriff, MDCR and municipal police departments but alone does not establish universal jail transport destinations.

Search Florida participating-agency custody — VINE name-search fields reached without signing in; participating-agency coverage must be verified This form is FDC state prison notification; separate county jail services need local verification.

Local source reviewed 2026-10-05. Public search controls were reached; individual search results were not checked.

If nothing appears, contact the arresting agency or the responsible jail to ask how to confirm booking. A missing record does not prove release, and an agency may limit what it can disclose.

If they were sentenced to prison

Use the correctional locator

For a state-prison sentence, use the Florida correctional locator. A short jail sentence may still be served in a local or regional jail. A sentence alone does not establish the housing location; confirm with the responsible agency.

State-prison and state-supervision records; explicitly excludes county jail/probation

Open Florida custody search

First/last name or DC number; alias and photograph options

Official agency instructions and assistance

Reviewed 2026-10-05. Search controls reached; individual results not tested.

If the charge is federal

Search the Federal Bureau of Prisons

A federal charge does not tell you which building holds the person. The U.S. Marshals Service is responsible for federal pretrial detention and may use local, state, private, or federal facilities. Check the Federal Bureau of Prisons locator, but a missing result does not establish that the person is not detained. For a recent federal arrest, contact the arresting agency or the relevant U.S. Marshals district office to ask about the appropriate custody-information process. USMS is a contact route, not a public person locator, and disclosure of a location is not guaranteed.

A listing does not establish that a person is held here. Use the responsible agency’s official locator or contact page to confirm custody.

No current facility contact has been independently verified for this guide. Start with the custody paths below or ask the arresting agency; do not travel or pay based on a historical listing.

Other kinds of custody

Immigration detention has a separate official ICE detainee locator. It does not search for people under 18, and a missing result does not prove release; use the official ICE field-office contacts. Search by A-number and country of birth, or the name/country/date-of-birth information requested by the service. Access and disclosure can be restricted.

Juvenile and tribal custody may have different agencies, privacy rules, and search limits. This guide does not provide a comprehensive juvenile or tribal locator. Contact the arresting agency or responsible juvenile or tribal authority to confirm the correct process.

For federal pretrial detention, use the U.S. Marshals district directory. Federal responsibility can include housing in a local jail.

Nearby counties in Florida

If the arrest happened just across a county line, these Florida counties are geographic navigation aids. Open a guide for official custody resources; these links do not establish detention or transport destinations.

If you need to bail them out in Florida

Finding the person comes first. Once you know where they are being held, this is how getting them out works in Florida.

Commercial bail available

Release depends on the court’s order. A payment is not required in every case. Ask the court which secured-bond options, if any, are permitted; a private commercial bond service has separate fees and conditions. Confirm the process before paying anyone.

The person’s rights. The person in custody has the right to talk to a lawyer about their case, and if they cannot afford one, the court can appoint a public defender.

Common questions about finding someone in Miami-Dade County

How do I find someone who was just arrested in Miami-Dade County?

For a recent local arrest, check the arresting jurisdiction’s official jail roster or custody-notification service. Housing may be at a municipal, county, regional, or contracted facility. If no record appears, ask the arresting agency or jail how to confirm the booking; do not infer the destination from distance or a facility listing.

How do I find someone in state prison from Miami-Dade County?

For a state-prison sentence, use the Florida correctional locator. A short jail sentence may still be served in a local or regional jail. A sentence alone does not establish the housing location; confirm with the responsible agency.

Is there a free way to check if someone is in custody in Florida?

Public custody searches are free. VINE name-search fields reached without signing in; participating-agency coverage must be verified This form is FDC state prison notification; separate county jail services need local verification. Check whether the responsible local agency participates. Use its contact when the service is unavailable; a missing record does not establish release.

How does bail work for someone held in Miami-Dade County?

Ask the court or responsible jail for the release order and permitted options. Court deposits and private service fees are different, conditions vary, and payment does not guarantee release.
