Washington Inmate Search

One of the best ways to find an inmate in Washington is by using the Washington State Department of Corrections(WADOC) offender locator tool. The online tool allows users to search for an inmate by name, date of birth, or DOC number. A DOC number is a six-digit admission number assigned to an inmate upon admission to a state correctional facility. 

To ensure that the information is accurate, the Department of corrections regularly updates information on state inmate search websites. 

Anyone who uses, communicates, or publishes incorrect data from the Washington state inmate search will be held accountable for any consequences resulting from relaying wrong information.
