Oregon Inmate Search

The Oregon Department of Corrections is the agency in charge of keeping and maintaining an updated database on those individuals who are serving their time out in Oregon state prisons.

The database is for the public to use and is located on the Oregon Department of Corrections official website. The database is updated regularly. You can search the database by their state identification number or their first and last name.

However, the state database does not include those inmates sitting in Oregon’s city or county jails. The city and county jails keep their databases and records separate. If you are looking for information on an inmate in one of those jails, you will need to seek out the proper authorities.

When an offender is housed in state prison, they are property of the Department of Corrections Division. As stated above every state’s Department of Corrections Division has their own jail roster or database that the general public may use.

The Oregon Department of Corrections offender search database can be found on the official Oregon Department of Corrections website.

You can search the inmate list by using the following pieces of information:

• SID Number
• First Name
• Middle Name
• Last Name

The SID number will take precedence during all searches. The SID is a seven-digit number. All incoming inmates will be assigned their SID Number by the Oregon Department of Corrections. This will be the easiest and quickest way to locate an inmate.

If you decide to enter their SID number in the field provided, you will NOT need to enter their first and last name. However, the SID field will only show results for the EXACT number you have entered, so you will want to double check, if no results pop up.

If you don’t know the inmate’s SID number or there is no search results for the SID number you plugged in, the next thing you can do is search by the inmate’s first and last name.

When you finally get some search results, you will see a list of all inmates that fit the criteria you plugged in. This is not a release search. All inmates are currently sitting behind bars.
