Daytona mugshots: find the right arrest record.
Searching for a Daytona Beach booking photo or a recent arrest? Use the Volusia County jail search for a person’s booking, the Clerk’s 24-hour arrest downloads for a day’s bookings, and Daytona Beach Police for city incident reports.

Fast answer: Mugshots from arrests in Daytona Beach are generally searched through the Volusia County Division of Corrections. The county maintains jail records; the Daytona Beach Police Department handles its own police reports; and the Volusia County Clerk maintains court cases. They do not provide the same information.
The county says its public inmate data updates about every 15 minutes, but that is not a guarantee a new booking appears immediately. The online system’s own disclaimer says it is informational and is not the certified government record for legal action.
Which Daytona Beach arrest or mugshot search should you use?
The correct starting point depends on your question. A dated list of people booked yesterday is different from a current inmate lookup, and a police arrest report is different from the criminal case docket.
| Question | Official source | What you’ll get |
|---|---|---|
| Is a named person in county custody? | Corrections Public Access | Available inmate, booking and photo details, subject to the site’s disclaimer. |
| Who was booked during a recent 24-hour period? | 24-hour Arrest/Booking Download | Dated PDF/XLSX booking records; generally accessible for about 14 days. |
| Can I obtain a Daytona Beach Police incident or arrest report? | DBPD Records Request | Agency-held police records, subject to redaction and applicable law. |
| What happened to charges in court? | Clerk Case Inquiry | Criminal case information and available docket images. |
| Do I need a Sheriff’s Office incident report? | Sheriff Records Section | Records generated or maintained by the Volusia Sheriff’s Office. |
Local distinction: The Daytona Beach Police Department is a city police agency. The Volusia Sheriff’s Office serves unincorporated areas and certain contracted cities; it does not replace the city department for a Daytona Beach Police report. Volusia County Corrections separately manages county detention records.
How to search Daytona mugshots by name
For someone arrested in Daytona Beach and processed into Volusia County custody, the public inmate portal is usually the quickest first stop. The Sheriff’s Public Information Office specifically points people seeking mugshots to the county corrections search.
-
Open Volusia Corrections Public Access.
Go to volusiamug.vcgov.org, the county’s public-access website. Review the disclaimer rather than using an unrelated background-check service.
-
Accept the portal’s terms.
Proceed using the official “Accept” control. This access is for informational personal use and the agency warns against unauthorized reuse or resale.
-
Search the name or identifier.
Enter the legal surname and any additional fields the current form provides. If you know the booking number, use it where the site offers that option. Do not guess an unrelated person’s date of birth.
-
Compare the results carefully.
Review the available booking date, agency, booking identifier, alleged charges, custody status and photograph. The details visible can vary with the record.
-
Use the appropriate next source.
For bond or immediate booking questions contact Corrections. For a city arrest report contact DBPD. For the final criminal case outcome use the Clerk’s Case Inquiry.
Volusia County’s online-services directory says the inmate search is updated every 15 minutes. That is the system’s published update frequency, not a guaranteed time from arrest to public listing. A person may also be released or moved between facilities.
What the result may tell you—and what it cannot
A booking record can help distinguish two people with the same name, connect an arrest to a reported charge, or establish which county jail processed someone. It cannot on its own confirm whether prosecutors filed the same charge or how a judge resolved the case. Use the Clerk’s records for those questions.
How to find Daytona Beach mugshots from today, yesterday or the last 14 days
When you do not know a person’s name but want to review recent bookings, the Volusia County 24-hour Arrest/Booking Download may be more useful than an individual inmate lookup. The reports originate from the county Jail Management System; the Clerk makes them available but does not maintain the jail data.
-
Open the official download page.
Look for the available dated files in PDF or XLSX format. Each file corresponds to a reported booking period, not a live photograph gallery.
-
Choose a relevant date.
The filenames begin with dates. A booking made after midnight may be reported on a different day from the initial arrest.
-
Read the format key.
The Clerk says the report includes a key explaining the data. The files include initial booking, charge and violation information; some records may be omitted because of legal exemptions.
-
Cross-check a name in Corrections.
For a photo, detailed booking record or current jail status, open the corrections portal and compare the official details rather than assuming the daily report shows a mugshot.
| Time or situation | Recommended route |
|---|---|
| An arrest within the last few hours | Try the inmate portal, then recheck later if processing is still underway. |
| Yesterday or last 24 hours | Open the latest dated PDF or XLSX in the Clerk’s Arrest/Booking Download. |
| Last three to seven days | Review relevant daily files, then search Corrections for a matching named booking. |
| About two weeks ago | Check the archive promptly: the Clerk says files remain for approximately 14 calendar days. |
| Older arrest or someone released | Use police records, court Case Inquiry or an agency records request as appropriate. |
There is no reason to claim that the site hosts live Daytona mugshots or a complete 30-day public photo gallery. The source actually depends on the record’s age and public availability. For a Volusia-wide explanation of daily date filters, see the recent Volusia County mugshots and bookings guide.
Request a Daytona Beach Police arrest or incident report
If an arrest or incident involved the Daytona Beach Police Department (DBPD), the correct source for its police report is the DBPD Records Unit. That is separate from the County Corrections booking record. The city provides an official Request a Report page linking to its public-records request portal.
-
Start on the city police website.
Use DBPD’s official Request a Report link. It sends you to the city’s authorized online records-request portal.
-
Identify the report precisely.
Provide the incident or case number if known, the event date, approximate location and the type of incident or arrest. The city specifically recommends those details.
-
Request the material you actually need.
State whether you seek an arrest report, incident report or available photograph. Some reports may include protected or exempt details that are redacted.
-
Review instructions and follow up.
Save any reference number and use the city’s records contact if you do not receive the requested material. Do not confuse this police report with a certified court record.
If the report was created by the Volusia Sheriff’s Office rather than Daytona Beach Police, use the Sheriff’s Records Section instead. Its published records number is 386-736-5962. Requesting from the wrong law-enforcement agency can cause delays even when the booking appears in the same county jail system.
Find a Daytona Beach criminal court case or disposition
When you want to know whether an initial arrest charge became a filed case, whether a hearing is scheduled or how a case ended, search the Volusia County Clerk’s official Case Inquiry. The Clerk says criminal searches support a name or case number and may display public docket images, subject to court and privacy restrictions.
-
Open the Clerk’s Search Records page.
Choose Case Inquiry for detailed criminal case information. Criminal Event Inquiry helps with schedules and events but is not a booking-photo database.
-
Search by the strongest identifier.
Use a case number where possible; otherwise use the person’s name and narrow by relevant facts. Verify you have the correct court case rather than trusting a matching name.
-
Open the docket and available images.
Review filings, hearings and disposition information. Some documents cannot be displayed online or require Clerk review.
-
Order an official copy if necessary.
For legal or administrative use, ask the Clerk for the appropriate certified document. Web images are not automatically certified copies.
Where are Daytona-area criminal case departments?
The Clerk lists the S. James Foxman Justice Center at 251 N. Ridgewood Ave., Daytona Beach, FL 32114 for criminal felony services (386-239-7750), and the Steven C. Henderson Judicial Center at 125 E. Orange Ave., Daytona Beach, FL 32114 for criminal misdemeanors (386-257-6084). Check the specific case notice: the actual hearing location varies by case.
The Clerk’s criminal records guidance publishes a fee of $1 per copied page and an additional $2 for certification. Online case lookup and obtaining an official certified document are different services. The Clerk also cautions that sealed or expunged cases are not open to ordinary public viewing.
Bond, first appearance and release after a Daytona arrest
Volusia County states that a person generally remains detained until bond is posted or a judge orders release. A First Appearance hearing typically occurs within a day of jail admission. The judge reviews probable cause and may keep, change or remove bond requirements. The jail is not the final authority on later criminal charges.
- First Appearance location The county directs attendees to the Volusia County Branch Jail, not the separate Correctional Facility.
- Published First Appearance schedule County FAQs list 1:30 p.m. Monday–Friday and 8:30 a.m. on weekends and holidays. Confirm the specific hearing before visiting.
- Booking and bond questions Contact 386-254-1540 for charges/booking questions or 386-254-1555 for the 24-hour Branch Jail Booking Office.
- Release processing The county says paperwork may take 2–4 hours after the release process begins; this is not a guaranteed release time.
- Nighttime release rule Since April 29, 2024, releases between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. require a responsible party on-site to transport the person, with check-in as instructed by the jail.
Bond-payment scam alert: Volusia County specifically warns about callers impersonating jail staff or bail bondsmen and demanding money through Zelle, Cash App, PayPal, cryptocurrency or similar transfers. The Division of Corrections says its staff do not solicit bonds by call or text. Verify an obligation through the official jail booking office before paying anyone.
County jail fees versus court copy fees
The county’s Corrections FAQ lists a one-time $30 booking fee and a $5 daily subsistence fee assessed to inmate accounts, with an identified work-program waiver for the daily fee. Those are not charges for using the public mugshot search. The county also describes a refund route through the Florida Justice Administrative Commission for qualifying acquitted defendants.
How Volusia County jail visitation works
If your goal is to see or contact someone in custody rather than locate a photo, use the county’s official visitation instructions. Visits are non-contact video visits, and on-site visitors report to the designated Visitation Center.
- Find the six-digit booking number. The county says this is needed for scheduling; locate it through the inmate search.
- Make an appointment. The county identifies ICSolutions and 888-646-9437 for visit scheduling. Appointments must be arranged in advance under current rules.
- Check the permitted visiting days. The county currently lists Tuesday–Saturday appointment slots, with restrictions during the initial 72 hours of incarceration unless approved.
- Arrive ready to check in. Check in 10 minutes ahead at the Video Visitation Building, 1300A Red John Drive, next to the Branch Jail. Adult visitors require acceptable photo identification; minors have separate ID and accompaniment rules.
- Follow visitation security rules. Cell phones and recording devices are prohibited in the building; dress-code and conduct restrictions apply. Verify all requirements before travel.
Visitation availability is distinct from a release date or bond status. For phone calls and messaging, the Corrections FAQ lists separate service arrangements; do not assume you can call the jail and be directly connected to an inmate.
Where are the Volusia County jail facilities in Daytona Beach?
The county operates two corrections facilities west of Interstate 95 near U.S. 92. They have different custodial functions. The Branch Jail is the county’s stated destination for bond and First Appearance matters; the Correctional Facility houses other classifications of inmates.
Address note: The county’s dedicated Jail and Bond Information page uses the Road/32120 forms above. Its Corrections contact directory lists Red John Drive and ZIP 32124. Because the county pages differ, confirm the destination with staff before driving or sending mail.
Do not go to the Correctional Facility when the county has instructed you to attend First Appearance or post bond at the Branch Jail. A court case hearing scheduled downtown is a separate trip; check the case notice or the Clerk’s office first.
Why is a Daytona mugshot missing?
- The arrest has not reached the public system. Booking and processing can take time. The county’s 15-minute update frequency does not mean immediate post-arrest publication.
- The person has already been released. A current custody roster may no longer show the entry. Try dated booking reports, the court case or an agency records request.
- The arrest happened outside Daytona Beach city limits. Determine whether DBPD, the Volusia Sheriff or a neighboring police department made the arrest before requesting the police report.
- The person is booked under a different spelling. Use an exact known booking number if available, and check names against date and other lawful identifiers. Do not assume a same-name match.
- The record is restricted or redacted. Juvenile, sealed, expunged or other protected records may not be publicly accessible.
- The date you want exceeds the 24-hour-report archive. The Clerk says daily download files are available for about 14 calendar days. Older records require another route.
- You need a court disposition, not an arrest record. Use the Clerk’s criminal Case Inquiry rather than assuming jail charges are the final outcome.
If you urgently need current custody information, use the jail’s published phone number rather than relying on a third-party photo gallery or an unverified social media post.
How to correct, seal or expunge an eligible Florida arrest record
If your concern is a mistaken record or an arrest you believe should no longer be public, identify which system contains the problem: a police record, jail entry, court docket or statewide criminal history. A court outcome does not automatically cause every independently operated website to remove an image.
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement explains the separate eligibility procedures for court-ordered sealing and expungement under Florida law. Its Certificate of Eligibility instructions list a $75 nonrefundable application fee, fingerprint materials and certified dispositions among the requirements, depending on the application. FDLE says processing generally takes about 12 weeks after receipt of a complete packet and that a certificate does not itself seal or expunge a record.
- Get the correct arrest and court case numbers, if available.
- Obtain the final disposition or other required documentation from the appropriate Clerk.
- Review FDLE’s current eligibility requirements and application materials.
- If eligible, complete the FDLE process and follow the required court petition procedure.
- Do not assume an order removes every privately republished item. FDLE explains that privately operated websites may require separate requests.
For factual mistakes in a Daytona Beach Police report, use DBPD Records; for errors in Corrections data, contact the jail; for court docket concerns, contact the Clerk. Consider legal advice when the record could affect important rights or decisions.
Daytona Beach mugshots FAQ
Where can I find Daytona Beach mugshots today?
Start with Volusia County Corrections Public Access for a named booking and the Clerk’s 24-hour arrest reports for a dated list of bookings. Photos may not appear in every record.
Is the Daytona Beach jail run by the police or Sheriff?
Neither. The Volusia County Division of Corrections runs the county detention facilities. Daytona Beach Police and the Volusia Sheriff’s Office are separate law-enforcement agencies.
How frequently is the inmate lookup updated?
Volusia County’s online services directory says public inmate information updates about every 15 minutes. New intake may still take longer to appear after an arrest.
How do I search arrests during the last 24 hours?
Use the Volusia County Clerk’s 24-hour Arrest/Booking Download. Choose a date and open the PDF or XLSX file; review the format key before interpreting charges.
How far back do the daily booking downloads go?
The Clerk says daily files generally remain available for approximately 14 calendar days. For older records, search the court, Corrections or the arresting agency’s records unit.
How do I request a Daytona Beach Police arrest report?
Start on the city’s Request a Report page. Include the case number, incident date, location and report type if known.
Does a booking mugshot mean the person was convicted?
No. It reflects an arrest or processing event. Check the criminal case docket or certified court disposition for subsequent case outcomes.
Where do I call about a Volusia County booking or bond?
Corrections lists 386-254-1540 for booking/bonding/charges/arrest inquiries and the Branch Jail Booking Office at 386-254-1555.
Where is a First Appearance hearing held?
The county directs people to the Volusia County Branch Jail. Its published schedule is 1:30 p.m. weekdays and 8:30 a.m. on weekends and holidays, but you should confirm the hearing before attending.
Can I visit someone immediately after a Daytona arrest?
Not necessarily. The county describes restrictions during the initial 72 hours of incarceration. Subsequent visits generally require appointments, identification and compliance with visitation rules.
Can I find the person’s final charge or case result in the mugshot system?
Not reliably. The jail system is not the court’s final disposition record. Use Volusia County Clerk Case Inquiry instead.
Why do county pages give different addresses for the Branch Jail?
The dedicated jail/bond page lists 1300 Red John Road, Daytona Beach, FL 32120; the contact directory uses Red John Drive and ZIP 32124. Confirm the specific destination by phone before visiting or mailing anything.
Can I pay a company to remove a mugshot from the official jail portal?
Private removal companies cannot guarantee control over a government record. For qualifying Florida records, review the official FDLE sealing/expungement procedures and contact the relevant agency or court.
Is this site suitable for employment or tenant screening?
No. USA-Mugshots.com is an independent informational guide, not a consumer reporting agency or a screening service. Such decisions may involve federal and state legal restrictions.
Start with the agency that actually holds the record
Use Corrections if you have a person’s name and want a booking record, the Clerk’s daily downloads when you need an arrest-date list, DBPD or the Sheriff for incident reports, and the Clerk’s Case Inquiry for later charges or a case result. If you are planning a jail visit or bond payment, confirm the facility, appointment or amount directly with the county first.
The purpose of this page is to get you to the correct public-record source quickly without confusing an arrest image with a judicial finding.
