This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release anyone, arrange bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the office that holds the record.
Which Office Should You Call?
Union County records are divided among several custodians. Call before visiting because the research did not verify public counter hours for the detention center, Sheriff's Office, or County Supervisor's Office.

Choose a route based on the question:
- For a released person or local release sheet, start with the Union County released-inmate search and records path.
- For community supervision, use Parole / Probation and call the Union PPP office at 864-429-1645.
- For a same-day comparison, use Released Last 24 Hours, which explains why Union has no official 24-hour feed.
- For a future date or alert, compare the Inmate Release Date resource with the VINELink Release Check.
- For a specific detention location, use the facility pages listed below.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use the SCDC current inmate search or call Inmate Records at 803-896-8531.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the official BOP or ICE locator named on the home page.
