Steps to pay bail in Riverside County

After an arrest, individuals are brought to Indio Jail - Riverside County in Indio for processing. Following this, three possible outcomes exist:

1. The individual may be released without posting bail, with a promise to appear in court.
2. The individual could be held in jail until their court date.
3. Bail or bond can be posted for release; for more information, contact 760-863-8252.

• Pay a cash bond in full at the bonding window inside the jail or at the clerk of court, by cash, cashier's check or money order; a lobby kiosk or online bond vendor often takes debit and credit cards for an extra fee, and you should bring the inmate's full name and booking number (the jail can be reached at 760-863-8252).
• Licensed bail bond agents in Riverside County are available for assistance.
