What are the visiting hours at the jail?

Visitation will not be allowed except for legal visits.
How can I post bail for a prisoner in your custody?

A prisoner has a right to be released on bail unless arrested for an offense where no bail is permitted, or arrested on a warrant or detainer which specifies "No Bail.”

The Fremont Jail will accept bail during hours of operation in the form of cash, cashier's checks, and surety bonds from a bail bonds person or his/her representative in the full bail amount. Personal checks may be accepted from other than the prisoner, but only for misdemeanor charges to be heard in the Fremont Hall of Justice, or warrants issued by that court. A current proof of funds from a bank (e.g. an ATM receipt dated that day), a valid form of identification and a thumb print from the person issuing the check(s) are required.

10% fee in lieu of total bail or a credit card is not accepted.
Prisoners who are in custody and are unable to post bail will be transferred to the Alameda County Jail (Santa Rita) on the next available transport.
How long will you keep a person in jail for being under the influence of drugs or alcohol?

Persons arrested on suspicion of being under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol are held for at least six (6) hours, or until that person is sober enough to provide for his/her own safety.
Where is the Fremont Hall of Justice located?

39439 Paseo Padre Parkway (at Walnut Avenue)
There is a warrant for my arrest; how do I turn myself in?

You can self-surrender to the Fremont Jail during hours of operation. You will be processed and may be transferred to Alameda County Jail. The Alameda County Sheriff Department will then transport you to the appropriate court. If the warrant of arrest is eligible for bail, you have the option to post bail to appear in court at a later date.
How can I get a prisoner's property released to me?

In the case of an emergency, the jail may release the prisoner's property with their consent. You will be required to sign the property form acknowledging receipt of the prisoner’s property.
Can I bring clothing, medication, food or money to a prisoner in the jail?

Food or money for prisoners is not accepted by the jail.

On a prisoner's request, an even exchange of clothing is allowed by the jail. A fresh set of clothes will be accepted by the jail if the prisoner's clothing was taken for evidence during the booking process, or if the prisoner did not have any clothing on when he/she got to the jail.

Prescription medication will be accepted by the jail if it does not fall under the types of medication which are prohibited in the jail, if it is properly labeled with the prisoner's name, and if the medication is not in capsule form.
