Contact and Location Information
How to Find an Inmate at Moore Haven Correctional Facility
Members of the public can look for an inmate using the official inmate search link available on this page. Inmate records or rosters typically list identifying information such as the person’s name, booking or admission date, charges or offenses, location, and custody status. Because this facility is part of the state prison system, search results may also include a state identification number, sentence information, and release eligibility details. Records do not always appear immediately after arrest or transfer. Processing, identity checks, and data updates can take several hours, so a newly booked or transferred person may not be searchable right away. If no record appears, try again later or contact the appropriate jail, court, or Florida Department of Corrections office for guidance.
