Arkansas Department of Corrections utilizes an online scheduling system for inmate visits. Before you can schedule to visit an inmate you must be on the approved visitation list. The visitor application for Arkansas is currently not available online, you must request this form from your inmate directly. It can take 1-3 weeks for the visitors application to be processed, and the inmate is responsible for communicating your application's status, that is approval or denial.
Once approved you can schedule to visit your inmate in Arkansas here. When you attend visitation only people who are on the inmate's approved visitation list will be allowed to attend, do not bring anyone with you to visitation who does not also have an approved visitors application on file.
