Daytona Beach Mugshots: 24-Hour Arrests, Bookings & Jail RecordsFor a Daytona Beach arrest, start with Volusia County Corrections for the booking and mugshot, use the Clerk’s recent Arrest/Booking files for very recent activity, and move to the Volusia County Clerk when you need the criminal court case or later disposition.
A mugshot documents an arrest or jail intake; it does not prove guilt, conviction, final charges, or current custody. Daytona Beach Police, Volusia County Corrections, the Sheriff’s Office, the Clerk, FDLE, and Florida Department of Corrections maintain different records for different purposes.
Official-source review: October 30, 2026Fast safety check: Never identify someone from a mugshot by facial resemblance or name alone. Compare the official source, jurisdiction, booking date, booking or inmate number, arresting agency, and court case information when available.
1. Quick Answer: Where to Search Daytona Beach Mugshots
The official Daytona Beach mugshot route is usually the Volusia County Division of Corrections Public Access system. Volusia County’s online services page says the public inmate information is updated every 15 minutes, but the county also warns that the web version is informational and is not the official legal record.
If the arrest happened very recently, the Volusia Clerk Arrest/Booking Download can be useful. The Clerk describes these as daily 24-hour arrest files for people arrested and booked into the Branch Jail during the previous 24 hours, with daily files generally available for about fourteen calendar days.
When the question changes from “was this person booked?” to “what happened in the criminal case?”, use the Volusia County Clerk Case Inquiry. Court records and jail records are related but not interchangeable.
For countywide context, see our Volusia County mugshots and booking-record guide. For a broader national workflow, use our guide to looking up mugshots through official sources.
2. How to Search Daytona Beach Mugshots Step by Step
A clean search starts with the custody system, not with Google Images or a copied social-media post. Use this order to reduce wrong-person matches and stale information.
Open Volusia County Corrections Public Access
Use the county’s inmate and mugshot search first for a person believed to have been booked into Volusia County custody. Read the disclaimer before using the database.
Search the legal name carefully
Start with the correct surname and first name. If you get no result, remove a middle name or suffix, check spelling, and confirm that Volusia County is the correct booking jurisdiction.
Verify the person with several identifiers
Compare the booking date, age or date of birth when displayed, booking or inmate number, arresting agency, charges, facility, and other available identifiers. A matching face or common name is not enough.
Check custody, bond, and holds separately
A mugshot can remain relevant to a past booking after custody changes. Review the current jail information and contact the Branch Jail for time-sensitive bond or release questions.
Use the arresting agency for the police report
If Daytona Beach Police made the arrest and you need the arrest report or incident record, use the city’s police records process. The police record is not the same thing as the county jail record.
Move to the Clerk for the criminal case
Use the Volusia County Clerk’s case search when you need docket activity, filed charges, available public documents, court dates, or the later disposition.
Switch systems if custody has changed
If local jail custody has ended and the person may be in Florida state correctional custody, use the Florida Department of Corrections offender search instead of repeatedly checking a county booking page.
3. Daytona Beach Arrests From the Previous 24 Hours
The Volusia County Clerk hosts an Arrest/Booking Download that is especially useful for recent-arrest research. The files are created from data obtained from the county Jail Management System and contain initial booking, charge, and violation information.
The Clerk currently explains that the daily files cover people arrested and booked into the Branch Jail during the previous 24 hours and remain available for approximately fourteen calendar days. Because these are booking-stage records, they should not be treated as final criminal-case outcomes.
Fast recent-arrest route
- Open the Volusia Arrest/Booking Download.
- Choose the daily file that matches the likely booking date.
- Use the name and booking details to identify the correct person.
- Return to Volusia Corrections Public Access for current jail and mugshot information.
- Use the Clerk’s criminal case search when you need the court record.
Do not call a 24-hour booking file a conviction list. It reflects an early stage of the process. Charges can later be amended, dismissed, reduced, or resolved differently in court.
For additional context about same-day and recent booking records, see recently booked mugshots and arrest records.
4. Which Daytona or Volusia Agency Has the Record You Need?
Daytona Beach arrest research becomes much easier once you separate the police, jail, sheriff, court, and state-corrections roles.
| 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 | City police arrest, offense, incident, accident, and related public records. | The county jail’s current custody record. |
| Volusia Sheriff’s Office | Sheriff-related law-enforcement information and records. | Volusia County Corrections. VSO directs mugshot questions to Corrections Public Access. |
| Volusia County Clerk of Circuit Court | Criminal case inquiry, 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 and state-supervision offender information. | A fresh Volusia County jail booking. |
| Florida Department of Law Enforcement | Florida criminal-history services, wanted-person resources, and seal/expunge process guidance. | The local jail’s current inmate record or Clerk court docket. |
The Volusia Sheriff’s Office specifically points users seeking mugshots to the Volusia County Corrections Public Access site. That distinction matters: the arresting agency and the jail operator may be different agencies.
5. How to Read a Daytona Booking Record Without Misunderstanding It
The mugshot is only one field. The surrounding booking data is what helps you determine whether you found the correct person and what source you should check next.
| Field | What it can tell you | What not to assume |
|---|---|---|
| Booking date | When jail intake was recorded. | It is always identical to the arrest time or court filing date. |
| Booking / inmate number | A useful jail-side identifier for the record. | It is the same as the criminal court case number. |
| Charge | The allegation listed at the booking stage. | The charge proves guilt or remained unchanged. |
| Bond | A listed bond amount or release-condition information. | Paying one amount guarantees immediate release. |
| Hold / detainer | Another legal or custody issue may affect release. | Resolving one charge clears every hold. |
| Arresting agency | Which agency may hold the arrest or incident report. | The arresting agency operates the jail. |
| Custody / release status | Whether the county system currently lists the person as held or released. | Release from jail means the criminal case is over. |
| Court case number | A strong bridge from booking data to the later court record. | A name-only match is equally reliable when a case number is available. |
6. Volusia County Jail, Bond, Release, and First Appearance Information
Volusia County lists two corrections facilities in the Daytona Beach area. The Branch Jail and the Correctional Facility serve different housing and operational roles.
| Facility | 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. |
Bond and booking contacts
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. Its Corrections contact page separately lists 386-254-1540 for booking, bonding, charges, and arrest questions.
Current release-window rule
The county’s jail-and-bond page currently 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 them from Corrections property and checks in with Control. Recheck the live county page before making pickup plans because jail procedures can change.
First Appearance
Volusia County’s Corrections FAQ says people generally appear before a judge within one day of jail admission. The same FAQ currently lists First Appearance hearings at the Branch Jail at 1:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8:30 a.m. on weekends and holidays. Confirm the current schedule before traveling.
Address warning: current county pages differ
Current Volusia County pages do not format the facility addresses consistently. The Corrections contact page lists the Branch Jail as 1300 Red John Drive, Daytona Beach, FL 32124 and the Correctional Facility as 1354 Indian Lake Road, Daytona Beach, FL 32124. The jail-and-bond page currently lists 1300 Red John Road, Daytona Beach, FL 32120 and 1354 N. Indian Lake Road, Daytona Beach, FL 32120. Use the verified facility name and confirm the live county page before travel or mail.
Bond scam warning
Volusia County Corrections warns about fraudulent calls and text messages from people claiming to be jail staff or bail bondsmen. The county states that no one from the Division of Corrections will solicit a bond for anyone. Treat unexpected requests for payment through Zelle, PayPal, Cash App, Bitcoin, or similar methods as suspicious and verify directly with the jail.
7. How to Request a Daytona Beach Police Arrest Report
If Daytona Beach Police made the arrest, use the police records process for the arrest report, offense report, incident record, photographs, audio, video, or other police-generated records that are lawfully available.
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. The city currently lists the Records Unit phone as 386-671-5100 and hours as 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding weekends and holidays.
Important arrest-report timing rule
The city’s Arrests page says arrest reports must be filed by the Florida 7th Circuit State Attorney’s Office before they can be released to the public. The city also warns that records cannot be released until they are processed and therefore may not be immediately available. For filing-status questions, the city lists the State Attorney’s Office at 386-239-7710.
Online request
Daytona Beach provides a public records request portal. The city advises requesters to include as much identifying information as possible, including the case number, date, location, and type of incident.
8. What Happened After the Arrest? Check Volusia Court Records
A jail booking describes an arrest and custody event. The court record is the better source for filed charges, hearings, docket activity, available documents, amendments, dismissals, pleas, judgments, and other case developments.
The Volusia County Clerk provides criminal case searches by name or case number. The Clerk says some public document images may appear on the docket tab, while certain documents must be requested and reviewed before online release. Confidential or otherwise nonpublic cases and documents are excluded.
Why the court record matters
- The filed criminal charge may differ from the initial booking description.
- A charge may be amended, reduced, dismissed, or resolved after the mugshot appears.
- Release from jail does not mean the criminal case ended.
- A court case number is generally a stronger identifier than a name-only search.
- Sealed, expunged, juvenile, confidential, and other restricted records can have different access rules.

9. Volusia 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. Because current county pages differ on the street/ZIP formatting, the map below searches by the verified facility name rather than forcing one disputed address format.

10. Why a Daytona Beach Mugshot or Arrest Record May Not Appear
No result does not automatically mean that no arrest occurred. Search timing, name formatting, custody changes, agency boundaries, and lawful access restrictions can all affect what appears online.
The arrest is very recent
Transport, identification, fingerprinting, intake, booking photography, medical screening, and database publication do not happen at exactly the same time. Volusia County says its public inmate information is updated every 15 minutes, but the underlying booking still has to reach the public system.
The name format is different
Check spelling, suffixes, middle names, hyphens, and known name variations. Search a surname first when the system allows it. Do not force a weak match because a photograph looks similar.
The person was released or transferred
A current-inmate search and a historical booking record answer different questions. If the person left local custody, check the Clerk case and determine whether a transfer to another system occurred.
You are searching the wrong agency
A Daytona Beach Police arrest report, a Volusia County booking record, a Sheriff record, a Clerk criminal case, and a Florida DOC offender profile are separate records maintained for different purposes.
The record is restricted
Some records may be confidential, sealed, expunged, juvenile-related, protected by court order, or otherwise unavailable to the general public. Do not attempt to bypass lawful access restrictions.
Best troubleshooting order: confirm city/county → verify spelling → check Corrections → check the 24-hour booking file → check the Clerk → identify the arresting agency → determine whether custody moved to the Florida DOC or another system.
11. When to Use Florida Department of Corrections or FDLE Instead
Florida Department of Corrections
Use the Florida Department of Corrections offender search when the person is in Florida state-prison custody or state supervision. Florida DOC records do not replace a new Volusia County jail booking.
The Department’s public OBIS documentation says the database contains public record information on felony offenders sentenced to the Department of Corrections and does not include county-jail-only custody or county probation outside the department’s supervision.
Florida Department of Law Enforcement
Use FDLE when you need statewide criminal-history services, wanted-person information, personal review, or seal-and-expunge guidance. FDLE’s Florida criminal history record check is different from the county’s live jail lookup.
12. Can a Daytona Beach Arrest Record or Mugshot Be Sealed or Expunged?
Florida record relief is a legal process. The FDLE Seal and Expunge FAQ explains that people seeking court-ordered sealing or expungement generally must first apply to FDLE for a Certificate of Eligibility before petitioning the appropriate court.
FDLE also explains that receiving a Certificate of Eligibility does not guarantee that the court will grant relief. The final decision is made by the court under the applicable law.
FDLE further warns that a seal or expungement order cannot eliminate every copy of arrest information from the internet. Mugshots and arrest information maintained by privately operated websites may require separate contact, and consumer-reporting companies may be subject to additional federal requirements.
Legal-information notice: eligibility depends on the actual record and current Florida law. For an individual case, follow FDLE and court instructions and consider advice from a qualified Florida attorney.

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. Separate correction or removal requests may be necessary.
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 for employment, housing, credit, insurance, or other regulated eligibility decisions.
16. Best Way to Verify a Daytona Beach 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 police report, use the city’s records process.
Then move to the Volusia County Clerk when you need filed charges, docket activity, public court documents, or the case disposition. If local custody has ended and state correctional custody may apply, switch to Florida DOC rather than relying on an old booking-photo page.
The safest sequence is: official booking source → identity verification → current custody → arresting-agency record → court record.
