The Dodge County Jail has an intergovernmental agreement with the U.S. Marshalls Service, Federal Bureau of Prisons and Immigrations & Customs Enforcement. If the inmate you wish to contact/visit is in the Dodge County Jail under one of these agreements, different rules may apply.

Anyone wishing to transfer from Dodge County to another agency should come to the facility and complete a transfer request form.  Once the form is completed an officer will forward the form to the other agency one week prior to the start date.  An officer will contact the applicant to indicate if he/she has been accepted or denied.

Inmates that want to transfer to Dodge County from another agency shall request the transfer through the county they were sentenced in.  Once the transfer form has been completed, he/she should not contact DCDF.  An officer will contact the sentencing county and the sentencing county will contact the applicant.  The requirements for insurance, etc. are the same as Huber Work Release.
