Tattnall Jail Overview
Tattnall County Jail is one of the surrounding jails named on the Long County Sheriff's Office jail page. The Long County source lists Tattnall as a jail and mail destination for Long County inmates and gives the address as P.O. Box 545, Reidsville, Georgia 30453. It also lists the phone as (912) 557-6778 and fax as (912) 557-6728. Long County roster entries also showed some detainees housed in Tattnall during the research pass.
The key local fact is the division of duties. Long County may be the arresting or charging county, while Tattnall County Jail is the physical housing facility. A family member searching for a Long County inmate should use the Long County roster first, because that roster ties together the Long County arrest date, status, bond line, warrant number, charge table, court field, and housing note. Once the note confirms Tattnall, call Tattnall for the facility rule that Long County did not publish.
Tattnall should not be treated as the Long County clerk, court, prosecutor, or bond-setting authority. The Long County jail page says the sheriff does not set bond and that bond is set by the appropriate judicial body. It also says all Long County holds must be processed through the Long County Sheriff's Office, not through the outside jail where the person is being housed.
Tattnall Jail Population
Capacity and current population for Tattnall County Jail were not located in the official Long County source. That omission should be preserved. A Long County facility page can say Tattnall is a county jail used as a housing destination, but it should not invent bed counts, average daily population, housing pods, classification levels, medical units, or jail-program details. Those are Tattnall facility facts and must be confirmed with Tattnall directly.
| Facility fact | Research result |
|---|---|
| Long County use | Listed by Long County as a housing and mail destination. |
| Roster evidence | Long County roster can show detainees housed in Tattnall. |
| Capacity | Not published in the Long County source. |
| Vendor or visit schedule | Not published in the Long County source. |
Search Tattnall Jail Records
The official route for a Long County detainee is the Long County current inmate roster. Use it even when the person may be physically held in Tattnall. The roster can show whether the person is currently booked, recently released, or listed by arrest date. It can also show Long County charges, total bond, warrant numbers, statutes, court labels, and the housing county. That housing line is what tells the reader whether Tattnall County Jail should be contacted for day-to-day custody rules.
- Search the Long County roster by name or browse current entries if the exact spelling is uncertain.
- Use the 24-hour arrests tab for very recent bookings or fast releases.
- Use the arrest-date tab when the person may have been released but the recent arrest still matters.
- Confirm a Tattnall housing note before using Tattnall jail rules or mailing to Reidsville.
- Use Long County for bond, holds, sheriff records, and court-date routing.
If the person has moved to state prison after sentencing, use the Georgia Department of Corrections offender locator instead. Tattnall County Jail housing for a Long County case is county-jail custody, not a GDC state-prison record.
Tattnall Jail Contact
Tattnall County Jail contact information is useful only after the Long County roster or Long County Sheriff's Office confirms Tattnall housing. For a Long County inmate, the Reidsville jail can answer facility questions, but Long County should remain the contact for Long County custody paperwork, sheriff records, holds, and bond processing. If a court date or formal case status is the real question, use the Long County Clerk of Court.

Tattnall Jail Visits
The Long County research did not locate a Tattnall County Jail visitation schedule, online scheduling provider, video visit provider, dress code, child visitor rule, appointment cutoff, or arrival-time rule. Do not infer those details from another jail. After the Long County roster confirms Tattnall housing, call Tattnall County Jail and ask for current visitation instructions before traveling or setting up any paid account.
| Visit topic | Known from Long County source | Needed confirmation |
|---|---|---|
| Days and times | Not published. | Call Tattnall County Jail. |
| Visit type | Not published. | Ask whether visits are video, on-site, or both. |
| Rules | Not published. | Ask about ID, dress, minors, and prohibited items. |
| Long County bond | Not a Tattnall visit issue. | Call Long County Sheriff's Office. |
Tattnall Jail Mail
Long County publishes a specific mail format for Tattnall: inmate's name, Tattnall County Jail, P.O. Box 545, Reidsville, Georgia 30453. Use the name as it appears on the Long County roster. Because the captured roster did not show a booking number field, call Tattnall to learn whether mail needs a local inmate ID, housing unit, or other identifier. Facility mail policies can change, and the Long County page did not publish Tattnall's full mail rule sheet.
| Service | What Long County research supports |
|---|---|
| Mail address | Inmate's name, Tattnall County Jail, P.O. Box 545, Reidsville, GA 30453. |
| Phone or video | No vendor or fee schedule located in the Long County source. |
| Commissary or deposits | No Tattnall vendor details located in the Long County source. |
| Booking photo | Ask Tattnall if the photo was generated at the housing jail. |
Long County's open-records page says LCSO does not generate or maintain booking photos because it does not house inmates. That makes the housing jail important for mugshot requests, but it does not mean every housing jail posts photos online.
Tattnall Jail Bond
A Long County detainee housed in Tattnall still has a Long County bond and court pathway. The roster may show Total Bond as a dollar amount, DENIED, or NOT SET. Before collecting money or traveling, call Long County Sheriff's Office and confirm what type of bond is allowed. Long County's bonding page recognizes cash bond, in-county property bond, out-of-county property bond, and approved bail bondsmen, but the proper court sets the amount.
- Housing county
- The county jail that physically holds the detainee and controls facility rules.
- Bond-setting court
- The court or judicial officer that sets release conditions, not the sheriff.
- Hold
- A custody issue Long County says must be processed through LCSO for Long County bookings.
- Court date
- A clerk or court matter, not a jail visitation question.
For formal case status, call the Long County Clerk of Court. The sheriff's court guide says the sheriff cannot provide court dates, case status, or specific legal details.
Tattnall Jail Intake
Intake for a Long County detainee can involve Long County booking data and Tattnall physical housing. The Long County roster shows the public custody fields, but it does not publish Tattnall intake timing, medical screening, classification, property release, or phone-call timing. Those details are facility procedures. Once Tattnall housing is confirmed, call the jail and ask what information it will release to family, attorneys, or bond companies.
Note: Confirm the Tattnall housing note before using any mail, visit, or facility-money process.
