Official Chemung County Contacts

Chemung County Busted Mugshots is a private reference site, not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release a person, accept bail, or retrieve an official booking record. Please use the responsible public office below for an official answer.


Where to Direct a Request

Start with the office that created or holds the record. The Chemung County Sheriff's Office is at 203 William Street, Elmira, NY 14901, and its main number is 607-737-2987. The Chemung County Jail is at 211 William Street, Elmira, NY 14901, at 607-737-2934. Sheriff Records is reached at 607-737-2948, 203 William Street, weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to noon and 1 to 4:30 p.m. A FOIL request may be needed for a record that is not displayed publicly.

  • For current county custody, use the official lookup and records paths before calling.
  • For a county-jail booking record or image, contact Sheriff Records and identify the agency, name or booking number, and date.
  • For an Elmira-held police report, use the Elmira Records Bureau and its NextRequest route.
  • For a court outcome, contact the clerk of the court that handled the matter, including Chemung County Court where appropriate.
  • For state-prison custody, use the New York DOCCS locator; for federal or immigration custody, use the BOP or ICE locator.
  • For a release notification when eligible, use the county's VINE route rather than relying on a retained third-party profile.
