The Shelby County Sheriff’s Office has re-opened its lobby door for regular business to resume. Office hours of the office lobby are Monday – Friday 8AM – 4PM. Authorities ask that people who enter the office lobby practice social distancing skills. As always, an after-hours entrance is available, located on the west side of the building by the garage door for matters that can’t be handled by phone during business hours, or next business day.

Weapon permits are accepted during regular business office hours within the lobby. With regard to jail operations, officials say they will resume inmate visitation using the video visitation system: Only allow one person will be allowed to visit at a time, as the public video phones are closer than six-feet. You are asked to respect the policy and understand the new procedures at this time.

Public fingerprinting will resume as well, by appointment: If you have your cards, and need fingerprints please call 712-755-5026 and setup an appointment for staff to fingerprint: General public will not be allowed inside the jail booking area for these services, as staff will process your prints in the lobby area.

Outside service jail programs are still suspended until further notice.  If you have questions, feel free to contact the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office at 712-755-5026.
