How to Search for an Inmate in Utah County Jail

The official inmate search tool for Utah County is the Utah County Sheriff Inmate Search. This is a free, government-operated service. Never pay a third-party website for inmate information that is available at no cost from the official county source.

1
Open the official inmate search portal
Go to https://www.utahcountyonline.org/dept/sheriff/jail/inmate-search in your web browser. This is the official Utah County Sheriff Inmate Search operated by Utah County. It is completely free to use. Do not pay any third-party website — the official search costs nothing.
2
Complete any security verification
Some official portals require you to solve a CAPTCHA or click a verification checkbox before searching. Complete this step if prompted. This is a standard security measure to prevent automated access.
3
Enter the person's information
The Utah County Sheriff Inmate Search allows you to search by: full name, booking number, date of birth. Enter the person's full legal last name in the last name field. Adding the first name will significantly narrow your results. Use the person's full legal name — not a nickname or alias.
4
Click Search and review the results
Click the Search or Submit button to run your search. A list of matching inmates currently in Utah County custody will appear. Review the results carefully and look for the correct person by confirming their full name and date of birth.
5
Click the person's name to view full booking details
Click on the correct person's name in the results list. This opens their full booking record, which typically includes their current facility location, booking number, arrest date, charges, and bail amount (if set).
6
Write down the booking number
The booking number is the most important piece of information on the record. Write it down immediately. You will need it to schedule visits, set up phone call accounts, send mail, and communicate with the facility.
7
Check the data freshness
The Utah County Sheriff Inmate Search updates real-time. If you searched immediately after an arrest, the person may not appear yet — new bookings typically take 2 to 8 hours to become visible depending on how busy the facility is.
8
If no results are found
If the person does not appear in the search results, they may not yet be processed into the system, may have already been released, or may be held in a city or municipal jail rather than a county facility. Call the Utah County jail information line at (801) 851-4100 for live assistance from staff.
