Montgomery County Jail Roster: Official Inmate Search
The Sheriff’s Office operates a County Corrections Public Access Portal at jailroster.mctx.org. The portal opens to a sign-in screen where existing users can log in and new users can create an account.
Why does the Montgomery County inmate roster require an account?
In May 2026, the Sheriff’s Office explained that its previous unrestricted roster had been misused by scammers targeting inmates’ families. The redesigned system adds user registration and security checks intended to reduce fraudulent access to custody information.
The Sheriff’s Office reported investigating more than 55 scam cases connected to misuse of jail-roster data.
How to Search the Montgomery County Jail Roster by Name
Visit jailroster.mctx.org. You should see the County Corrections Public Access Portal sign-in page.
If you are a first-time user, select Create one below the sign-in form. Follow the registration instructions and create your login credentials.
Follow the portal’s account and anti-bot verification instructions. The Sheriff’s Office requires verification before roster searching is available.
Return to the login page, enter your email address and password, and access the inmate lookup system.
Enter the person’s last name. The Sheriff’s Office confirms that a last name is the minimum information required for a search. Add other details if the current interface permits.
Compare available names, booking photographs, booking details and other identifying information before deciding which record belongs to the person you are searching for.
Open the relevant inmate record and review the information available in the portal. Remember that a listed charge is an allegation, not a conviction.
If you need to verify custody, release eligibility or bond arrangements, call 936-760-5800 and choose the jail option.
What if I forgot my inmate portal password?
Open the portal login page and select Forgot password?. Follow the account-recovery instructions rather than creating multiple accounts unnecessarily.
Can I use the Sheriff’s Office mobile app?
Yes. The Sheriff’s Office announced that the redesigned inmate-search feature is also available through its official mobile application. Find the app through links provided on the Sheriff’s Office website rather than an unofficial download page.
Montgomery County Jail Recent Bookings & Arrest Records
The inmate lookup system provides information about people recorded in the Montgomery County jail system, including available booking details and charges. However, a current inmate roster should not automatically be treated as a complete historical record of every arrest.
