Guadalupe County Inmate Search
The Guadalupe County Sheriff's Office provides an online inmate search at guadalupecountysherifftx.org/records-search. You can search by last name at minimum, with optional additional filters like first name, date of birth, and booking number. Results show the inmate's full name, booking date, current charges, bond information, housing facility, and projected release date. The adult detention section at guadalupecountysherifftx.org/adult-detention has additional details about the facility.
You can see the inmate search interface directly from the Guadalupe County Sheriff's website, which provides the search fields and results format used for current inmates at the Seguin facility.
The Guadalupe County inmate search page lets you look up current inmates by name or booking number and see their charges and custody status.
For custody notifications, register through VINELink to get alerts when an inmate's status changes. Mail sent to inmates should include the inmate's full name and S.O. number, addressed to 2615 North Guadalupe Street, Seguin, TX 78155-7356.
Guadalupe County Booking Photos and Records
Booking records at the Guadalupe County Adult Detention Center are public records under the Texas Public Information Act (Government Code Chapter 552). Each record includes the inmate's full legal name, date of birth, physical description, booking number, arresting agency, charges, and bond details. A booking photo is taken at intake and forms part of that official record.
Guadalupe County sits in South Central Texas between San Antonio and Austin, making it one of the faster-growing counties in the state. The detention center handles a large volume of bookings as a result of the county's population growth. The facility books around 8,000 people per year and transfers approximately 3,600 to court proceedings across the county. Records for current inmates are in the online system. Older records can be requested directly from the Sheriff's Office.
The county also maintains a second inmate search resource at guadaluperecords.us/inmate-search, which may include additional data on recent bookings.
Note: Access to records in active investigations may be restricted pending the outcome of those proceedings.

Removing an Arrest Record in Guadalupe County
Arrest records in Guadalupe County remain on file until a court orders them removed. Under Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Chapter 55, you may be eligible for expunction if charges were dismissed, you were found not guilty, or the case ended without a conviction. The process starts with a petition filed in the Guadalupe County district court in Seguin.
If the court grants the petition, all agencies holding records of that arrest must destroy them. This includes the Guadalupe County Sheriff's Office and the Adult Detention Center. The booking photo on file is also destroyed. After expunction takes effect, you can legally say the arrest did not occur. Orders of nondisclosure are another option for eligible cases and seal records rather than destroy them. A local attorney in Seguin can evaluate your case and explain what options apply to your situation.
