FCI Seagoville Overview
FCI Seagoville is operated by the Federal Bureau of Prisons at 2113 North Hwy 175, Seagoville, TX 75159. BOP describes it as a low-security federal correctional institution with an adjacent camp and a federal detention center flag. It holds federal male inmates in BOP custody. Dallas County jail bond rules, county book-in numbers, and TDCJ state prison numbers do not control this facility.
Federal custody is a separate track from county jail custody. A person arrested in Dallas County may first appear in Dallas County Jail Lookup if held locally, but sentenced or designated federal inmates are searched through BOP. BOP's locator covers federal inmates from 1982 to present and includes release-date cautions because sentence calculations can change. Routine federal mugshots are not published through the public BOP locator.
The official BOP FCI Seagoville page is the source for facility identity, address, and federal custody information.
The BOP source keeps FCI Seagoville separate from Dallas County's jail towers and from Hutchins Unit in the TDCJ system.
FCI Seagoville Population
The BOP population endpoint showed 1,389 total inmates for Seagoville on June 25, 2026, with 1,290 at the FCI and 99 at the camp. The research did not locate a formal rated capacity in the extracted BOP page, so the published BOP population is the best sourced facility figure. This population is not part of the Dallas County jail count reported by TCJS.
How to Look Up an Inmate at FCI Seagoville
Use the BOP inmate locator for FCI Seagoville. The BOP locator supports name-based and number-based searches for federal inmates. Dallas County Jail Lookup is only relevant if the person is still in county custody or on a local hold before federal transfer.
- Open the BOP inmate locator.
- Search by federal register number, BOP number, DCDC number, FBI number, or INS number when available.
- Use first, middle, and last name plus race, sex, and age fields for a name search.
- Confirm that the facility is FCI Seagoville or its adjacent camp before using facility contact rules.
If the person was arrested recently in Dallas County but is not in BOP custody, check Dallas County jail, court, warrant, or city detention records before assuming federal placement.
FCI Seagoville Address and Contact

Federal Custody at FCI Seagoville
FCI Seagoville is not a booking desk for Dallas County arrests. Federal placement follows federal court, BOP designation, transfer, sentence computation, and custody-classification processes. BOP designation and sentence computation are separate from county magistrate, bond, and book-in-number records.
Dallas County may hold some federal detainees locally, and TCJS reports can include federal inmates in county jail counts. That does not mean every federal inmate appears in the county roster. Once the person is in BOP custody, use BOP records.
For Dallas County cases, check the county jail roster, Dallas court records, TDCJ, and ICE before concluding that no official custody record exists locally.
About FCI Seagoville
FCI Seagoville is the secure BOP institution in Dallas County, while RRM Dallas manages federal residential reentry placement from Grand Prairie. Both are federal systems. Neither is the Dallas County jail roster, and neither is the TDCJ Hutchins Unit state-prison locator.
For Dallas County search work, the practical sequence is simple: county jail records for local custody, TDCJ for sentenced state prison, BOP for sentenced federal custody, and ICE for immigration detention. FCI Seagoville belongs in the BOP branch of that sequence.
Note: Confirm BOP custody and current FCI Seagoville visiting rules before travel, mail, calls, or deposits.
Dallas County Custody Routing
This facility should be read within the larger Dallas County custody map. The county jail roster, city detention lists, TDCJ locator, BOP locator, ICE locator, court records, and public-information request channels each answer a different question. A missing result in one system is not proof that the person is not in custody. It often means the arrest is still at a city detention center, the person has moved from county jail to state or federal custody, the record has not refreshed, or the searcher is using a county roster for a non-county custody status.
For Dallas County jail custody, the practical fallback is the Dallas County Jail Lookup, then the jail information line at 214-761-9025, then the sheriff public-information request path or Records Division at 214-653-2677 for records that are not online. For a recent municipal arrest, Dallas city detention, Garland, Irving, and Mesquite custody channels can matter before a county transfer. For sentenced state prisoners, use TDCJ inmate search and IVSS. For federal custody, use the BOP inmate locator. For immigration detention, use the ICE Online Detainee Locator and confirm whether the person is under the Dallas Field Office context or at a regional facility outside Dallas County.
Record details also change as the case moves. A jail profile may show book-in number, tank location, charges, warrant number, magistrate, and bond, while the later court record may show the formal complaint, information, indictment, amended charge, dismissal, plea, conviction, or disposition. Dallas County research did not confirm a universal release-retention period for the jail roster, a separate city-to-county transfer clock, or a facility-specific public update time for every custody channel. When timing matters, verify through the agency that controls the current custody record before visiting, sending money, relying on a bond amount, or assuming release.
