Official Columbia County Contacts

This is a private reference resource, not a government office. It cannot confirm custody, arrange release, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the responsible public office directly for each of those needs.

  • For current Columbia County Jail custody or a booking-record request, use the official roster and county records form described on the county lookup page.
  • For an own missed-court matter or warrant scheduling question, use the court process on Most Wanted or call Columbia Circuit Court.
  • For court events and case outcome, contact Columbia County Circuit Court at 230 Strand Street, St. Helens, OR 97051, 503-397-2327.
  • For Oregon state custody or supervision, use Oregon Department of Corrections Offender Search or VISOR.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use the appropriate BOP or ICE locator, not the county jail roster.
  • For an immediate emergency, call 911. A non-emergency tip can be directed to CCSO dispatch or the official tip form.
