Video Visitation

Visitation hours are 9:00 AM – 10:00 PM , seven days a week with some block-out times. There are two ways to visit an inmate at the Knox County Jail:

1. Onsite visit in the lobby using the Video Visitation terminal.
Or
2. Remote visit from your computer, tablet, or smart phone at www.jailatm.com.

Setting up a visit is easy! Just follow these steps:

  • Go to www.jailatm.com.
  • Click on Video Visitation or Onsite Visit.
  • Set up an account with Securus.
  • The Knox County Jail must then approve your visitor account.
  • Once approved, you can schedule your visit online with a specific inmate.
  • The inmate you schedule your visit with is the only inmate that you are permitted to visit at that time. Visiting a different inmate will result in your account being suspended.
  • For Onsite Visits, you will need your terminal number and PIN number.

To be approved to visit an inmate, you will need a Positive Picture I.D. That can include:

  • A Driver's License
  • A State I.D.
  • A Government I.D.
  • A Passport
  • Remember: Your I.D. picture must clearly identify you. A photo containing apparel that obscures your appearance, such as sunglasses, hats, etc. is not a Positive Picture I.D.
