Daytona Mugshots & Arrest Records: Official Volusia Search GuideSearching for Daytona mugshots usually means you need more than a photograph. The useful trail is Volusia County jail booking data, bond and custody information, the arresting agency’s report, and the court record that follows.
Official-source review completed October 30, 2026. Recheck live agency pages before relying on custody, bond, release, address, or court information.
A mugshot is not a conviction. A booking photograph documents an arrest or intake event. Charges can change, a person can be released or transferred, and the final court outcome may differ from the original jail record.
1How to Search Daytona Mugshots Correctly
The quickest accurate route is to identify which record you actually need. Daytona Beach Police may create the arrest report, but Volusia County Corrections handles county jail booking and custody records. The Volusia County Clerk handles the court record.
Start with Volusia County Corrections
Open the official Volusia County Corrections hub. For a booking photograph or county jail record, use the county’s separate Corrections Public Access search.
Search the legal name and verify the match
Do not rely on facial resemblance or a matching first and last name alone. Compare the booking date, age or date of birth when available, booking or jail identifier, arresting agency, charges, facility, and other record details.
Check bond and present custody separately
If your real question is whether the person can be released, whether bond is listed, or where a First Appearance is handled, use Volusia County’s jail-and-bond information rather than a copied mugshot page.
Move to the Clerk when you need the case outcome
The jail record describes the booking and custody side. The Volusia County Clerk’s online records page is the better route for criminal case details, docket activity, and available court documents.
Use the correct next system if county custody ended
If the person is no longer in the local search, do not assume the case disappeared. Check release or transfer information, the court case, and the Florida Department of Corrections Offender Search when state correctional custody may apply.
For a broader search process outside Daytona, the site’s guide to looking up mugshots through official sources explains how to identify the correct jail, sheriff, state, or federal system.
2Daytona Arrest Records: Which Agency Should You Use?
One of the easiest ways to get the wrong answer is to treat police, jail, sheriff, court, and state-corrections databases as interchangeable. They are not.
| Agency / system | Best use | What it does not replace |
|---|---|---|
| Volusia County Division of Corrections | County inmate information, booking photos, jail facilities, bond and release guidance. | Police incident reports or the final criminal court record. |
| Daytona Beach Police Department | Daytona Beach police arrest, offense, incident and related agency records. | The county jail’s current custody record. |
| Volusia Sheriff’s Office | Sheriff agency information and sheriff-related records. | Volusia County Corrections. The Sheriff’s Office states that it does not operate Corrections or the Branch Jail. |
| Volusia County Clerk of Court | Criminal case search, docket activity, available public court documents, and recent arrest/booking downloads. | Live jail custody or booking-office confirmation. |
| Florida Department of Corrections | Florida state-prison, release, supervision and related offender searches. | Fresh Volusia County jail bookings. |
Practical rule: use Corrections for the booking, the arresting police or sheriff agency for the law-enforcement report, and the Clerk for what happened in court.
3Official Daytona Mugshot and Inmate Search
For a person booked into Volusia County custody, the county’s Corrections Public Access website is the key official starting point.
The public-access site contains an important limitation: its online information is provided for general informational use and is not itself the official legal record. Volusia County states that records maintained within the jail are the official records of the Division of Corrections, and images copied from the public website are not certified copies.
What to verify before trusting a Daytona mugshot result
- The full name and spelling shown by the county system.
- The booking date and approximate arrest timeframe.
- The arresting or committing agency when shown.
- The booking, jail, or inmate number.
- The listed charges and whether multiple cases are involved.
- Bond, hold, release, or custody information where displayed.
- Any court case number that can be matched to Clerk records.
A screenshot reposted on Facebook, a private arrest site, or an image-search result can remain online after custody changes. Go back to the responsible agency before describing someone as currently jailed.
For countywide information beyond Daytona Beach, see the site’s dedicated Volusia County mugshots and booking-record guide.
4How to Check Recent Daytona Arrests From the Last 24 Hours
The Volusia County Clerk offers something especially useful for recent-arrest research: an Arrest/Booking Download on its Online Public Records page.
The Clerk describes the download as daily 24 Hour Arrest data covering individuals arrested and booked into the Branch Jail during the previous 24 hours. It includes initial booking, charge, and violation information. The Clerk says daily files remain available for approximately fourteen calendar days.
Fast recent-arrest route
- Open Volusia County Clerk Online Public Records.
- Find the Criminal Information area.
- Open Arrest/Booking Download.
- Choose the applicable daily file.
- Use the booking data to identify the person and related record.
- Return to Corrections Public Access for current inmate or mugshot information.
- Use Case Inquiry when you need the court record.
The daily arrest file should not be treated as a final case disposition. It reflects the initial booking stage. Later prosecutorial decisions, amended charges, court rulings, release, or case disposition can change the picture.

5How to Read a Daytona Booking Record Without Misunderstanding It
The photograph is usually the least informative part of the record. The surrounding fields tell you whether you found the correct person and what to research next.
| Field | What it can tell you | What not to assume |
|---|---|---|
| Booking date | When jail intake was recorded. | It may not be identical to the time of arrest or court filing. |
| Booking / jail number | Helps identify the specific jail record. | It is not necessarily the criminal court case number. |
| Charge | The allegation shown at the booking stage. | It does not prove guilt or guarantee the charge remained unchanged. |
| Bond | May show an amount or release-condition information. | A displayed amount does not guarantee immediate release. |
| Hold / detainer | Another legal or custody issue may affect release. | Resolving one charge or bond necessarily clears every hold. |
| Arresting agency | Which police, sheriff, or other agency may hold the incident or arrest report. | The arresting agency necessarily operates the jail. |
| Custody / release status | Whether the county system currently describes the person as held or released. | Release from county jail means the criminal case is over. |
| Case number | Connects the booking to later court activity. | A name-only search is equally reliable when a case number is available. |
Wrong-person warning: never accuse someone of an arrest because a face looks similar or a common name matches. Verify the jurisdiction plus several record identifiers.
6Volusia Branch Jail Bond, Release and Contact Information
Volusia County directs bond questions to the Branch Jail Booking Office at 386-254-1555. The county lists that Booking Office as open 24 hours a day.
The Corrections contact page separately lists 386-254-1540 for booking, bonding, charges, and arrest questions.
Current release-window rule
Volusia County states that, effective April 29, 2024, inmates are not released between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. unless a responsible party is on site to transport the inmate from Corrections property. The responsible party must check in with Control before release.
Because custody procedures can change, verify the current rule directly on the official jail and bond page before making travel or pickup plans.
Two Volusia corrections facilities in Daytona Beach
| Facility | Official contact | County description |
|---|---|---|
| Volusia County Branch Jail | 386-254-1555 | Pretrial, state-sentenced, and medium/high-custody non-sentenced male inmates. Bond posting and First Appearance attendance are directed here. |
| Volusia County Correctional Facility | 386-254-1565 | County-sentenced, low/medium-custody non-sentenced male inmates, and female inmates. |
Address verification note: current Volusia County pages format the Branch Jail address differently. The jail-and-bond page lists 1300 Red John Road, Daytona Beach, FL 32120, while the Corrections contact page lists 1300 Red John Drive, Daytona Beach, FL 32124. Use the facility name in navigation and confirm the live county page before traveling.
7Volusia County Branch Jail Map
The Branch Jail is the most relevant physical location for bond posting and First Appearance information connected with Volusia County jail custody.
Volusia County Branch Jail
Facility: Volusia County Branch JailPhone: 386-254-1555
Official location source: Volusia County Jail & Bond Information
Because two current county pages use different street/ZIP formatting, this map searches by the verified facility name rather than forcing one disputed address format.
8What Happened After the Arrest? Check Volusia Court Records
Once you have verified the jail booking, the next useful question is often not “where is the mugshot?” but “what happened to the case?”
The Volusia County Clerk says criminal case searches are available through Case Inquiry. Searches can use a name or case number. Available case details can include docket activity and public document images.
The Clerk also notes that some documents must be reviewed before online release and that confidential or otherwise nonpublic cases and documents are excluded. A missing online document therefore does not automatically mean the case or filing does not exist.
Daytona criminal court contacts
| Court location | Address | Criminal contact |
|---|---|---|
| S. James Foxman Justice Center | 251 North Ridgewood Avenue, Daytona Beach, FL 32114 | Circuit / felony: 386-239-7750 |
| Steven C. Henderson Judicial Center | 125 East Orange Avenue, Daytona Beach, FL 32114 | County / misdemeanor: 386-257-6084 |
The Clerk explains that the location of a criminal proceeding is generally based on where the offense occurred. Use the actual court notice or case record rather than assuming a courthouse from the charge alone.
Why the court record matters
- The filed charge may differ from the original jail description.
- A charge can be amended, dismissed, or resolved later.
- A release from jail does not mean the criminal case ended.
- A court case number is usually a stronger identifier than a name-only search.
- Sealed or expunged records are subject to different access rules.
9How to Request a Daytona Beach Police Arrest Report
If the arresting agency was the Daytona Beach Police Department, the jail record and police report answer different questions.
The Daytona Beach Police Records Unit states that it maintains and distributes offense reports, supplemental reports, accident reports, arrest reports, miscellaneous incident reports, and tow slips in accordance with Florida public-record requirements.
Phone: 386-671-5100
Published hours: 8:30 a.m.–3:30 p.m., Monday–Friday; closed weekends and holidays.
Daytona Beach Police — Request a Report
The city advises requesters to include as much identifying information as possible, such as the case number, date, location, and type of incident.
If you need the police narrative, video, photographs, or another police-generated record, use the police records process. If you need current jail custody or a booking photo, use Volusia County Corrections instead.
10Why a Daytona Mugshot or Arrest Record May Not Appear
The arrest is very recent
An arrest and a completed public jail record are not the same event. Transport, identification, fingerprinting, intake, booking photography, medical screening, and database updates can occur at different times.
The name format is different
Try the surname alone, remove punctuation, check a middle initial or suffix, and confirm the legal spelling. Do not create a match by forcing a similar name to fit.
The person was released
Current-inmate searches and historical booking records answer different questions. A person can leave custody while a court case continues.
The person was transferred
A transfer can move the custody question to another facility or to the Florida Department of Corrections. Repeatedly searching the same county page may no longer help.
You are searching the wrong record system
A Daytona Beach police arrest report, a Volusia County booking record, a Clerk criminal case, and an FDOC offender profile are separate records maintained for different purposes.
The record is restricted
Some court records can be confidential, sealed, expunged, juvenile-related, or otherwise unavailable to the general public. Do not try to bypass lawful access restrictions.
Best troubleshooting order: confirm jurisdiction → verify spelling → check Corrections → check the Clerk → identify the arresting agency → determine whether custody transferred to another system.
11When to Use Florida Department of Corrections Instead
The Florida Department of Corrections offender databases are separate from Volusia County jail records.
FDOC provides an Inmate Population Information Search, an Inmate Release Information Search, supervised-population records, escape information, and other correctional databases.
FDOC states that inmate-population information is completely refreshed weekly, except release dates and location changes, which are updated nightly. The inmate-release search is also updated nightly.
Open the official Florida Department of Corrections Offender Search.
Use FDOC when the person is in Florida state correctional custody or supervision. Do not use it as a substitute for a new Daytona or Volusia County jail booking.
For more guidance on choosing between local jail, state prison, and federal systems, see the site’s Jail Inmate Search guide.
12Can a Daytona Arrest Record or Mugshot Be Sealed or Expunged?
Florida record relief is a legal process, not a simple “delete my mugshot” button.
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement explains that people seeking to seal or expunge an eligible Florida criminal-history record generally must first apply to FDLE for a Certificate of Eligibility before petitioning the appropriate court. Receiving the certificate does not guarantee that a court will grant sealing or expungement.
FDLE also warns that a court-ordered seal or expungement does not automatically erase every copy of arrest information from privately operated websites. Private websites may need to be contacted separately, and different legal rules can apply to consumer-reporting businesses.
Read the official FDLE Seal and Expunge FAQ.
Legal-information notice: eligibility depends on the actual record and Florida law. For an individual case, use official FDLE and court instructions and consider advice from a qualified Florida attorney.

No. A mugshot records an arrest or booking event. It does not establish guilt, conviction, final charges, or the eventual court disposition.

How do I check the court case after a Daytona arrest?
Use the Volusia County Clerk’s online Case Inquiry. Criminal case searches are available by name or case number, subject to confidentiality and online-access restrictions.
Can I request a Daytona Beach Police arrest report?
Yes. Daytona Beach provides a public-record request process for police records. Include the case number, date, location, and incident type when available so the request can be identified more precisely.
How can I find Daytona arrests from the previous 24 hours?

Why is a person missing from the Volusia mugshot search?
The booking may still be processing, the name may be formatted differently, the person may have been released or transferred, the arrest may belong to another jurisdiction, or access to a related record may be restricted.
What if the person is no longer in Volusia County jail?
Check the court case and determine whether the person was released or transferred. If Florida state correctional custody may apply, use the Florida Department of Corrections Offender Search.
Is the Volusia mugshot website itself an official court record?
No. Volusia County’s public-access disclaimer says its online information is for general informational purposes and is not the official legal record. Official court records are handled through the Clerk of Court.
Can a Florida arrest record be sealed or expunged?
Some records may qualify. FDLE explains that an applicant generally must obtain a Certificate of Eligibility before petitioning the court. Eligibility depends on the record and applicable Florida law, and a certificate does not guarantee court approval.
Does expungement automatically remove a mugshot from private websites?
No. FDLE explains that sealing or expungement does not necessarily eliminate arrest information maintained by privately operated websites. Those sites may require a separate correction or removal process.
Can Jail-Mugshots.org be used for employment or tenant screening?
No. Jail-Mugshots.org is an independent informational website and is not a Consumer Reporting Agency. Do not use this site to make employment, housing, credit, insurance, or other regulated eligibility decisions.
16Best Way to Verify a Daytona Arrest
Start with Volusia County Corrections for the booking and mugshot. Use the Branch Jail contact route when bond or release timing matters. If Daytona Beach Police made the arrest and you need the incident or arrest report, use the police records process.
Then move to the Volusia County Clerk when you need the criminal case, court filings, or disposition. If local custody has ended and state correctional custody may apply, move to the Florida Department of Corrections rather than relying on an old booking-photo page.
The safest sequence is simple: official booking source → identity verification → current custody → arresting-agency record → court record.
