Subject Lookup tool for adults in King County jails

Use the King County Subject Lookup Tool to: 

  • Find out if an adult is currently in custody in King County, 
  • Learn where an individual is being held, or
  • Find an individual's booking number. This is sometimes called a Book of Arrest (B/A) number.

You may need a B/A to contact a person in custody or to send them money. 

Another way to search for adults in custody is by using the jails' phone system: 206-296-1234.

If you believe a youth (under age 18) is in custody, call 206-263-9595 (24 hours a day, 7 days a week).
