Pasco County Sheriff’s Office Phone Number, Address & Locations

Which Pasco County Office Should You Use?

Pasco Sheriff Chris Nocco and the Sheriff’s Role

Chris Nocco is the current Sheriff of Pasco County. Current September 2026 Sheriff communications and the agency’s command-staff page continue to identify Nocco as Sheriff.

Pasco Sheriff’s Office—usually abbreviated PSO—handles county law-enforcement functions such as road patrol, investigations, warrants, civil process, victim advocacy, property evidence, offender registration and agency public records.

It is important not to use the old assumption that PSO also runs the jail. County detention operations were transferred to the Pasco County Board of County Commissioners in 2022.

Municipal police versus Pasco Sheriff

Not every arrest or police report in Pasco County originates with PSO. Incorporated cities can have their own police departments. When requesting a report, first identify which law-enforcement agency actually handled the incident.

Pasco County Inmate Search Is a Corrections Service, Not a Sheriff Jail Service

Current Pasco County adult custody information is available through the Pasco County Corrections jail-management portal. The online system includes an In Custody search and a separate Past Arrests search.

Pasco County Corrections at Land O’ Lakes

Pasco County Corrections operates the county detention facility at:

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement’s January 2026 correctional-facility directory lists Stacey Jenkins as Pasco County’s Chief Correctional Officer and identifies the Land O’ Lakes facility at 20101 Central Boulevard.

Why this distinction matters

Since October 1, 2022, detention-center management has been separate from Pasco Sheriff. A user who calls Sheriff administration about inmate visitation, jail mail or a detention-center operational issue may be routed elsewhere because those services now belong to County Corrections.

Pasco County Inmate Calls and Video Visitation Use ICSolutions

Pasco County Corrections uses ICSolutions / ICS Corrections for inmate telephone and video-visitation services.

The current ICS Corrections facility page publishes prepaid and inmate-debit calls at $0.16 per minute for listed domestic call categories and traditional collect calls at $0.25 per minute, excluding applicable taxes or government-mandated charges. Provider rates can change, so check the live account before funding it.

Onsite versus offsite visitation

Video visits can be conducted from visitation-center terminals or remotely through supported computers and mobile devices. Remote visits require the visitor to register and use the provider’s supported application.

Pasco County Inmate Personal Mail Goes to a Digital Mail Center

One of the biggest local changes from older jail guides is that ordinary personal mail is not mailed directly to the Land O’ Lakes jail. Pasco County Corrections uses a Securus Digital Mail Center for personal correspondence.

Personal correspondence is scanned and delivered electronically for viewing on inmate tablets or kiosks. Improperly addressed correspondence can be delayed or returned.

What still goes directly to the jail?

Current Corrections mail rules identify several items that must be sent directly to the facility rather than the digital personal-mail center, including:

• Legal mail.
• Approved publications sent directly from a publisher, distributor or authorized retailer.
• Government checks from approved sources.
• Prescription glasses and certain approved vision/hearing-related items.

Direct facility mail for those approved categories uses:

Use the Pasco County Clerk for Criminal Court Records

Pasco Sheriff’s warrant page specifically directs people to the Clerk of Circuit Court for the final disposition of criminal charges. The Clerk’s online court-record search is therefore the right follow-up after an arrest or warrant search.

Criminal court offices

The Clerk publishes office hours of 8:30 a.m.–5:00 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.

Pasco Sheriff Has a Live Active-Warrant Search

Pasco Sheriff maintains a public list of active outstanding county warrants. The search can display details such as warrant type, issue date, related docket, charge information and bond information when available.

PSO does not give warrant information over the phone

The Fugitive Warrants Unit’s official page states that the unit does not give out warrant information by telephone. Public users are directed to the online search or appropriate in-person/FDLE resources.

The Sheriff also says that a person resolving a Pasco County warrant can surrender at the Pasco County Central Jail, 20101 Central Boulevard in Land O’ Lakes. Anyone who believes a warrant may exist for them may wish to obtain advice from a licensed Florida criminal-defense attorney before deciding how to proceed.

If you have information about a wanted person, PSO publishes the Crime Tips Line at 1-800-706-2488. Do not attempt to apprehend the person yourself.

Pasco Sheriff Public Records Now Use JustFOIA

This is another important update missing from many older Pasco guides. Effective September 7, 2026, Pasco Sheriff began using JustFOIA for new public-record requests.

GovQA remains available for tracking requests that were submitted through the old portal before the change, but the Sheriff states that new requests on or after September 7 should go through JustFOIA.

Records that may belong somewhere else

Marsy’s Law and victim reports

The Sheriff warns that a victim, parent/legal guardian or legal next-of-kin seeking unredacted victim information may need to provide the agency’s Marsy’s Law form. Without the required documentation, identifying victim information can be redacted.

Body-worn camera video

Some body-camera footage recorded in locations protected by Florida law is exempt or confidential. PSO provides a body-worn-camera waiver form for requesters who qualify for a statutory exception.

When You Can File a Pasco Sheriff Report Online

PSO has a Citizen Online Reporting system, but it is not intended for every situation.

The online system screens the incident before allowing a report. Situations involving emergencies, a firearm or other weapon, a known or present suspect, serious violent or sexual crimes, crimes involving a child and other excluded circumstances must be handled through dispatch rather than the online form.

The Sheriff warns that online reports are reviewed and that approval may take up to approximately 72 hours because reviews occur during business hours.

Need a deputy instead?

For a non-emergency law-enforcement response, call 727-847-8102 and choose option 7.

Pasco Sheriff Civil Process Has Specific Limits and Fees

PSO’s Civil Process Unit carries out the Sheriff’s statutory duties for enforceable process and writs. The unit also conducts levies and levy sales.

A particularly useful local distinction is that PSO states it does not serve ordinary private civil subpoenas, civil summonses or other non-enforceable private process. Private process may require an approved special process server instead.

Government entities mailing qualifying process are directed to Pasco Sheriff’s Office, Attention: Civil Process Unit, 8661 Citizens Drive, New Port Richey, FL 34654.

Pasco Sheriff Registration Is at Asbel Road in Land O’ Lakes

The registration office is closed for lunch from 12:30–1:00 p.m. and closed on federal holidays under the current PSO contact guidance.

The Sheriff’s page states that a Florida identification card, Florida driver license or Florida Department of Corrections identification is required.

Contact PSO Property Evidence Before Going to an Office

Pasco Sheriff’s Property Evidence Section handles property held by the agency. The current PSO contact page publishes 813-235-6120 for property-evidence questions and property-claim information.

Do not assume that property associated with an arrest is automatically available for immediate pickup. Evidence, found property and personal property can be subject to different release requirements or legal holds.

Pasco Sheriff Victim Advocates and Florida VINE

Pasco Sheriff’s Victim Advocate Unit assists crime victims with rights, resources and criminal-justice navigation. The agency also participates in VINE for custody-status information and notifications.

How to File a Pasco Sheriff Commendation or Complaint

PSO’s Professional Standards Unit handles misconduct allegations involving agency members. The online form can also be used to submit a commendation.

The form requests details including the incident date, location, report/event number when known, member name, vehicle/tag information and a description of what occurred.

If you are trying to report a crime rather than complain about a PSO member, use 911 for an emergency, 727-847-8102 option 7 for a non-emergency deputy response, or the eligible online reporting process.

Pasco County Details That Prevent the Most Common Mistakes

• Do not call the Sheriff about every jail question. Pasco County Corrections has managed the detention center since October 2022.
• The Sheriff administration address is 8661 Citizens Drive. Older web pages can still point users toward Little Road as though it were headquarters.
• Use option 7 for a non-emergency deputy response. Sheriff administration and dispatch are different telephone routes.
• New PSO records requests changed portals in September 2026. New requests now use JustFOIA, while old GovQA requests can still be tracked there.
• Personal inmate mail is digitized. Ordinary letters go to the Securus Digital Mail Center, not directly to the jail street address.
• Warrant information is available online. The Fugitive Warrants Unit says it does not provide warrant information by phone.
• PSO will not call demanding payment to clear a warrant. Recent scams have used spoofed numbers and old PSO addresses.
• 911 recordings are county communications records. Do not automatically send that request to Sheriff Public Records.
• The majority of Pasco traffic crashes may be investigated by FHP. First identify the responding agency before ordering a crash report.
• Local PSO arrest history does not equal a complete county or statewide background check. Other agencies and court records may contain different information.
