Comal County Jail Visitation Schedule

Comal County Jail, 3000 IH 35 South, New Braunfels, TX 78130 | 830-620-3450

How the schedule works: every visit at the Comal County Jail, in person or from home, is a video visit on The Visitor system by IC Solutions, and the open days and times appear in your IC Solutions account when you schedule: choose the date from the list of available days, then a time from the available slots. Book on the web at icsonline.icsolutions.com, at the kiosk in the Bonding lobby, or by phone at 888-506-8407.

  • Register first: registration is free; you add your ID details and the person you want to see, and you can only visit inmates on your approved list.
  • On-site visits: held at video terminals in the jail’s visitation center while the inmate stays in the housing unit. Sign in 10 minutes before your time with a valid U.S. government-issued photo ID, then enter your confirmation code (your account phone number plus your 4-digit PIN) at the station.
  • Who can’t visit in person: anyone held in the Comal County Jail within the past six months.
  • Home visits: on a Windows computer with The Visitor Windows Edition, or on Android or iPhone with the free ICS Mobile app (Apple computers can register and schedule but not hold the visit). Run the network test 15 to 30 minutes before the visit.
  • Fees: home visits are fee-based; the price is set for this jail and charged to your account when you schedule, and connection problems on your end are not refunded.
  • Changes: to move a confirmed visit or add or remove visitors, call IC Solutions customer service at 888-646-9437.

Schedule a Visit with an Inmate at the Comal County Jail

Everything visit-related at the Comal County Jail, in the lobby or from home, starts with an IC Solutions reservation. The sections below cover who may visit, how to book, what to wear and what a video session from home costs. For a question the reservation system can't answer, call the jail at 830-620-3450.

Video Visitation - Information, Schedules, Duration and Cost

Planning a trip to the New Braunfels lockup? Nothing happens without a reservation: the Sheriff’s Office sends all on-site and home-video sessions through IC Solutions, whether you sign up on its website, at the machine in the Bonding lobby, or over the phone (888-506-8407). Showing up without a booked slot does not get you in. On the day, have photo identification issued by a U.S. government agency and be signed in at the jail no less than 10 minutes before your time. A person who was an inmate at this jail any time in the last six months is barred from on-site visits. The schedule and the rest of the rules follow below.

Visiting the Comal County Jail: Common Questions

Do I need an appointment to visit the Comal County Jail?

What ID does the Comal County Jail accept from visitors?

I left the Comal County Jail recently. Can I visit a friend there?

Can my kids come to a visit in New Braunfels?

Is visiting from home cheaper than driving to IH 35?


Do I need an appointment to visit the Comal County Jail?

Yes. The Sheriff's visiting rules route every in-person and video visit through IC Solutions scheduling, so reserve a slot ahead online, at the Bonding lobby kiosk or by phone before you drive to IH 35 South.


What ID does the Comal County Jail accept from visitors?

Bring a current government photo ID issued in the U.S. A Texas driver's license, state ID card or military ID all qualify. Without one, staff won't sign you in.


I left the Comal County Jail recently. Can I visit a friend there?

Not in person for six months after your own stay; the Sheriff applies that rule to in-person visits. Home video in that situation is the jail's call; phone 830-620-3450 and explain your release date.


Can my kids come to a visit in New Braunfels?

Yes, if they are added to the booking as extra visitors and an approved adult stays with them for the whole visit.


Is visiting from home cheaper than driving to IH 35?

Driving in saves money, since lobby video is free while the at-home option has a fee. Our remote visit page explains the setup.
