This is a private reference site, not the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, the jail, or a records desk. We cannot confirm custody, release an inmate, post bond, schedule a visit, or obtain an official booking record for you. Use the public office contacts below for those requests.
Montgomery County Record Contacts
The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office is the local contact for sheriff reports and many jail-related questions. The jail can confirm or deny custody, while the sheriff's public information says bond, release times, charges, and court dates should be directed to the Sheriff's Office.

For a sheriff report, use the official records request form. The sheriff forms page states that requests are made by printing and completing the form, bringing it to the Sheriff's Office with valid identification, and paying the listed $5 report fee.
- For someone held in the county jail, start with jail inmate records and then use the jail or sheriff phone number if the roster does not answer the question.
- For booking photos, use jail roster mugshots and the sheriff records request process when a public photo is not available online.
- For charges filed after an arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and the Kansas court records system.
- For facility address and visitor context, use the Montgomery County Jail / Department of Corrections page listed in the footer.
- For a sentenced Kansas prisoner, use the Kansas Department of Corrections KASPER locator instead of the county jail roster.
- For a federal inmate or immigration detainee, use the Bureau of Prisons inmate locator or the ICE detainee locator.
