Harrison County Adult Detention Center Online Bond Payments

• There is a service fee for processing payment(s) online or over the phone.
• The total charge amount will be displayed prior to submitting the payment.
• To make a payment by phone, call 877-793-7925 Mon - Fri 8:00AM - 8:00PM and Sat - Sun 10:00AM - 2:00PM EST.
• Once you have submitted your payment, you will receive an email letting you know if your payment has been accepted or rejected.

The Harrison County Sheriff recommends that you also consider using a bail bond agent licensed to do business in Harrison County.

You can pay a cash bond yourself, or use your home in Harrison County, or in some cases the state of Mississippi, but the benefit of using a bail bond agent is that they take responsibility for making sure the inmate shows up for court in Harrison County, and if they don't, then they take the responsibility.
The typical fee for a bond will be between 10-20% of the bail amount; usually 15%. 
So if an offender has a bail of $10,000.00, their bond will be $1500.00.

Call 228-896-3000 to find out the exact bond (plus other fees) amount, or look it up online by looking up the information on the Harrison County inmate locator.

How Do You Deposit Money for an Inmate in the Harrison County Adult Detention Center?

There are two options for putting money on an inmate's books:

Choice 1 - Deposit Inmate Money Online

Harrison County Adult Detention Center uses CommissaryDeposit.com to process all online deposits to an inmate's account. The company charges you a small fee for doing so, but the fee probably isn't as much as gas and parking would cost to take it to the jail in person.

Choice 2 - Mail the Inmate Deposit to the Jail

Mailing a deposit takes more time to process than the other methods but can be done if you live too far away to bring it in person and you don't have a debit/credit card for online deposits. Never send cash. Always send a Money Order from the US Post Office, a reputable bank or Western Union.

Make the Money Order out to the inmate's name and put their Inmate ID# in memo section of the Money Order.

**Call 228-896-3000 first to ask Harrison County Adult Detention Center if this option is still available.
