Federal Inmates For information on Federal inmates from 1982 to the present, call the national Inmate Locator at 202-307-3126 (due to the large volume of requests, callers may experience slight delays).

For information on Federal inmates before 1982, call the Office of Communications and Archives at 202-307-2934 (or write to the office at 320 First St., NW., Washington, DC 20534). For historical searches, please provide as much information as possible: name, date of birth, approximate dates in prison, etc.
