Daytona Mugshots & Volusia County Jail Records
Search the right local source for a Daytona Beach booking photo, recent arrest list, current inmate or criminal case. Volusia County keeps these records in separate systems; this guide shows where each one belongs.

For a named inmate, use Corrections. For a day’s arrests, use the Clerk’s daily files. For the result of a charge, use the court case.
Inmate information and available photos 24-hour arrest and booking files Court cases and dispositionsWhere do Daytona and Volusia County mugshots come from?
The Volusia County Division of Corrections operates the county jail system and makes inmate information and available booking photographs accessible through its official online portal. The Volusia County Clerk provides a separate dated list of arrests and bookings. Neither source is a complete record of what ultimately happened in court.
The Volusia Sheriff’s Office does not operate the jail. It maintains Sheriff’s law-enforcement records. Daytona Beach Police handles city-generated police and incident reports. This division of responsibility matters because an arrest can be made by one agency and processed into a county jail operated by another.
Use Volusia Corrections Inmate Information Search. The county says its public inmate information refreshes approximately every 15 minutes, but the displayed data is informational rather than a certified legal record.
Use the Clerk’s Arrest/Booking Download for daily PDF or Excel files created from the county Jail Management System.
Use Daytona Beach Police when DBPD handled the incident, or Volusia Sheriff’s Records Section for Sheriff-generated reports.
Use the Volusia Clerk’s criminal Case Inquiry; the booking charge is not necessarily the charge filed or resolved.
“Daytona mugshots” may refer to Daytona Beach city arrests, arrests elsewhere in Volusia County, or anyone held in a Daytona-area county jail. Before you search, identify the arresting jurisdiction and the type of record you need.
How to find a Daytona Beach inmate or booking photo
The county’s official inmate-information system is the most direct starting point for a person who may be in Volusia custody. The public site presents a disclaimer; its information is not intended to substitute for certified jail records or legal advice.
- Open the county-linked search.
Use Volusia County Corrections and select Inmate Information Search, or go to its public access system.
- Read the portal disclaimer.
Accept its terms if you agree. Public-access information and copied images are not certified official records, and the portal places limits on reproduction and reuse.
- Search the name carefully.
Enter the person’s name using the fields the live system provides. For common names, compare available identifiers rather than assuming the first match is correct.
- Check booking details and the photograph, if shown.
Look for a booking date, number, facility, arresting agency or charge data. A missing picture does not mean an arrest never occurred or that a public photo must exist.
- Save the correct identifier.
Volusia visitation instructions use a six-digit inmate booking number. It can help with a follow-up inquiry when the portal provides it.
- Verify time-sensitive facts directly.
For booking, charges and current bond questions, the county points to Corrections at 386-254-1540. For bond at the Branch Jail, call 386-254-1555. Use the court for the legal case result.
About updates: Volusia County says the online inmate service updates about every 15 minutes. That is a system update interval, not a promise that a new arrest appears instantly or that every field is current at the moment you view it.
Find mugshots and arrest data from the last 24 hours or seven days
If you want to see who was booked on a particular date, the Volusia County Clerk’s Arrest/Booking Download is more appropriate than an inmate name search. The Clerk says its daily files are created by Volusia County from Jail Management System information and contain initial arrest, booking, charge and violation data. Some records are excluded under statutory exemptions.
- Open the Clerk’s Arrest/Booking site and accept the access terms if prompted.
- Select a dated daily report from the download list. PDF is convenient for reading; Excel may be useful for searching or sorting downloaded entries.
- Check the format key supplied with the report before interpreting abbreviations or fields.
- Record the relevant booking date and number, then use the Corrections lookup for an available photo or more recent custody information.
- For a case outcome, go to the Clerk’s criminal Case Inquiry instead of treating the initial charge as final.
| Timeframe or need | Recommended source | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
| Arrest in the past few hours | Corrections inmate information | Portal updates are periodic; new records may not yet be visible. |
| Previous 24-hour period | Clerk’s latest dated report | Initial booking and charge data, not a conviction list. |
| Last 3–7 days | Clerk’s daily downloads | Review each relevant report by date while available. |
| Around two weeks ago | Available Clerk archive | The Clerk describes approximately 14 calendar days of availability. |
| Older booking or released person | Arresting agency or court record | Older records may require a formal request; no guaranteed photo archive. |

How to request a Daytona Beach arrest or incident report
A jail mugshot is not the police narrative that explains an arrest. The agency that made or investigated the incident is usually the source for its report, subject to public-record rules, exemptions and processing status.
Daytona Beach Police Department (DBPD)
The City provides an online public-record request route for records involving DBPD. Include the case number if known, date, location and type of incident. Daytona Beach Police says an arrest report must first be filed with the Seventh Judicial Circuit State Attorney’s Office before DBPD can release it; a new report may therefore be unavailable immediately.
DBPD Records lists service hours of 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding holidays, and its general contact is 386-671-5100. The City’s arrest report guidance provides the State Attorney’s contact when you need to confirm filing status.
Volusia Sheriff’s Office (VSO)
For a Sheriff’s incident report, call-for-service record or local records check, begin with the Volusia Sheriff Records Section. Its listed phone is 386-736-5962. The Sheriff’s records guidance also explains how to request records online, by telephone, in person or by mail. Large requests, footage and records requiring extensive research can involve fees or longer processing.
A Daytona Beach city police record should not be requested from the Sheriff merely because both agencies operate in Volusia County. If unsure, use the arresting agency field in the booking data.
Volusia County’s two jail facilities in Daytona Beach
The county Division of Corrections operates the Branch Jail and the Correctional Facility, both west of central Daytona Beach off the U.S. 92 corridor. The county’s jail-and-bond page lists each facility’s location and phone number.
Volusia County Branch Jail
1300 Red John Road, Daytona Beach, FL 32120
386-254-1555
Bond posting, Booking Office and First Appearance hearings.
Volusia County Correctional Facility
1354 N. Indian Lake Road, Daytona Beach, FL 32120
386-254-1565
Separate detention facility; ask the county to confirm placement before traveling.
The Branch Jail primarily houses pretrial and certain other custody groups; the Correctional Facility handles different security and sentencing classifications, including female inmates as described by the county. Do not guess a person’s facility from their arrest city or charge. Verify their current placement.
Address note: Volusia County’s general Corrections overview and its facility-specific jail-and-bond page use slightly different road/ZIP formatting. The addresses above follow the facility-specific page. If mailing documents, confirm the current mailing address with the facility rather than treating the visitor address as a mailing address.
Find the criminal case behind a Daytona mugshot
Jail records show a person at intake or in custody. To find filed charges, hearings, dismissals, pleas, judgments or dispositions, use the Volusia County Clerk’s Case Inquiry. Search by a name or case number and review the docket when available. Some documents require a request or additional viewing permission; sealed and confidential records are not public.
For Daytona-area matters, the Clerk identifies the S. James Foxman Justice Center for circuit/felony work and the Steven C. Henderson Judicial Center for county/misdemeanor work. Use the court notice or Clerk to verify the correct location for a specific hearing.
S. James Foxman Justice Center
251 N. Ridgewood Avenue, Daytona Beach, FL 32114
Felony clerk: 386-239-7750
Steven C. Henderson Judicial Center
125 E. Orange Avenue, Daytona Beach, FL 32114
Misdemeanor clerk: 386-257-6084
Copy and record-search fees
The Clerk’s criminal division page lists $1 per copied page, plus $2 for a certified document. If the Clerk performs a name-based search for you, the listed fee is $2 per year, per name; public access terminals are available at Clerk offices without a search charge. Confirm the total before ordering certified records.
Do not confuse the record systems. A mugshot is not a court disposition. A daily 24-hour report is not a complete docket. A missing public court record can also reflect confidentiality, sealing, expungement or search limits, not necessarily proof that no case existed.
Bond, First Appearance, releases and visitation
First Appearance and bond
Volusia County says a person who remains in jail normally appears before a judge within one day of admission. The county currently lists First Appearance hearings at the Branch Jail at 1:30 p.m. on weekdays and 8:30 a.m. on weekends and holidays. The judge may change bond, order release on recognizance or impose other lawful conditions. Confirm a scheduled hearing with Corrections or the court before traveling.
For bond information, the Branch Jail Booking Office is listed as open 24 hours a day at 386-254-1555. The county warns against phone or text scams in which someone impersonating jail staff or a bondsman demands payment by money-transfer app or cryptocurrency. Use the county’s bond instructions, never a payment link sent by an unknown caller.
Release is not necessarily immediate
After eligibility for release is confirmed, Corrections must process paperwork, and the county says that stage can take roughly two to four hours depending on the circumstances. Since April 29, 2024, the county generally restricts releases between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. unless a responsible person is physically present to transport the individual and checks in as required.
Visitation and inmate contact
Visitation is by appointment. The county’s visitation instructions require the inmate’s six-digit booking number and generally require appointments at least 24 hours ahead. On-site visits take place at the Video Visitation Center beside the Branch Jail, at 1300A Red John Drive. Adults must bring suitable photo identification, and visitation restrictions apply during the initial 72 hours.
Inmates cannot receive incoming phone calls. The Corrections FAQ explains current call and messaging options, restrictions, mail rules and release-property procedures. Check those instructions before creating a paid communication account or sending funds.
When you need more than a Volusia County mugshot
Florida criminal-history search
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) maintains Florida’s state criminal-history repository. Its public criminal-history search is different from the county jail system. FDLE lists a $24 fee for a public search; its instant online option adds a $1 card-processing fee and returns an uncertified result.
For a personal accuracy review of your own record, FDLE offers a separate fingerprint-based Personal Review without an FDLE charge. It cannot be used as an employment or licensing background check and cannot be requested for another person through that process.
Florida state-prison custody
A person sentenced or transferred to Florida state custody may no longer appear as a current Volusia jail inmate. The Volusia County Corrections page links to the Florida Department of Corrections offender search. Use it for state custody rather than treating a county jail search as statewide.
Sealing or expunging a record
Florida has eligibility-limited procedures for court-ordered sealing or expungement. FDLE explains that applying for a Certificate of Eligibility is an initial step and currently lists a $75 nonrefundable application fee with the required fingerprint and supporting materials. The Volusia Clerk lists a $42 court filing fee for the petition stage. Eligibility, required dispositions and court approval are separate questions; an issued certificate is not itself a sealing order.
If you believe a booking or history record is incorrect, request correction through its custodian. Do not assume an independent website can amend county records, or that a paid private “mugshot removal” offer can guarantee deletion of an official file.
What to do if a Daytona inmate or mugshot does not appear
| Problem | Likely reason | Better next action |
|---|---|---|
| Name is missing in Corrections | Not yet updated, released, transferred or another facility | Check the dated Clerk report; call Corrections for urgent status. |
| Recent booking but no photo | No image displayed or a legal restriction | Do not substitute an unverified photo; ask the agency about releasability. |
| Arrest record but no court result | Different filing stage, search limits or confidentiality | Use the Clerk’s case search and contact the correct court. |
| Daytona city incident but no VSO report | DBPD or another agency generated the report | Identify the arresting department and request that agency’s records. |
| Record older than daily report archive | Clerk downloads retained approximately 14 days | Search the court docket or request a historical record from its custodian. |
| Same-name results | A shared name is not enough to prove identity | Compare available date, booking number and agency details before relying on a match. |
For immediate welfare concerns or real-time release questions, call the responsible detention facility. Web pages are not an emergency notification or legal verification service.
Daytona and Volusia County mugshots FAQs
Where can I find official Daytona Beach mugshots?
Start with the Volusia County Division of Corrections public Inmate Information Search. The Volusia Sheriff’s website directs users to the Corrections public-access system for booking photos. Availability depends on the record.
Does the Volusia Sheriff operate the county jail?
No. The county Division of Corrections operates the Branch Jail and Correctional Facility. The Sheriff’s Office is a separate law-enforcement agency and maintains records generated by its personnel.
Where are Daytona arrests from the last 24 hours listed?
The Volusia County Clerk offers dated 24-hour Arrest/Booking downloads, containing initial booking and charge information created from the county jail system. These downloads are not a court conviction list.
How long do the Clerk’s daily booking reports stay online?
The Clerk says the daily files remain downloadable for approximately 14 calendar days. If you need something older, use the relevant arresting-agency records route or criminal court search.
How often does the county inmate information update?
Volusia County’s online-services guidance says approximately every 15 minutes. The site also warns that online data are informational and not certified records for legal action.
Why is a mugshot unavailable even though an arrest was reported?
The photograph may not be displayed, access may be restricted, or the person may not appear in the public search. Do not assume there is a public image or use an unrelated person’s photograph as a substitute.
What phone number handles Volusia booking or charge questions?
Volusia Corrections lists 386-254-1540 for booking, bonding, charge and arrest questions. Branch Jail bond inquiries can be directed to 386-254-1555.
When is First Appearance at the Volusia Branch Jail?
The county lists 1:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8:30 a.m. on weekends and holidays. Verify the particular hearing before attending, since official schedules can change.
Can I obtain a Daytona Beach Police arrest report immediately?
Not always. Daytona Beach Police says arrest reports must be filed by the Seventh Judicial Circuit State Attorney’s Office and processed before the department can release them.
How can I check whether a Daytona criminal charge was dismissed?
Use the Volusia County Clerk’s criminal Case Inquiry and review the relevant public court docket. A booking entry does not show the complete legal outcome.
What does a certified criminal court record cost?
The Volusia Clerk currently lists $1 per copied page plus $2 for certification of a document. Its staff-performed searches are priced separately by year and name.
Is the FDLE Florida criminal-history lookup free?
No. FDLE lists $24 per public search, plus a $1 processing fee for the instant card-payment option. A personal-review request for your own record uses a different, no-charge process.
Can I get a Volusia mugshot removed through an online company?
Do not assume so. Official records are controlled by their custodians and applicable Florida law. Sealing, expungement and correction may require eligibility review and a court process. Private websites have their own lawful obligations.
Can I use a mugshot to make employment or housing decisions?
Do not use this informational site as a consumer report or compliant screening system. Arrest information does not establish guilt, and regulated decisions may involve federal, state and local requirements.
