Is the person I am looking for at Eden?
Start at ice.gov/locator: enter the A-number, or first and last name, together with country of birth, matching the detention record exactly. Then call (325) 869-2704, which ICE's page, updated August 6, 2026, says works 24 hours a day. Staff can confirm housing only; everything else must come through the person. The Eden site also serves the U.S. Marshals Service, so say you mean an ICE case. If nothing turns up, call the Dallas Field Office at (972) 367-2200. Other sites are in the ICE facility directory.
Which days are ICE visiting days at Eden?
The table on ICE's page shares each day between ICE and the Marshals. ICE slots are Sunday and Thursday from 8 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., and Wednesday and Saturday from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. Friday from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. is marked for ICE in the special housing unit. Monday and Tuesday are closed. To hear the current schedule, call (325) 869-2704 and press 2. Visits are non-contact and last at least 1 hour, and the shift supervisor may change times.
What can visitors bring into Eden?
Only 4 visitors are allowed per visit, and each adult needs valid government-issued identification. Children under 16 need a birth certificate, and minors must come with a guardian aged 18 or older. A small clear bag may hold 1 baby bottle, 1 diaper, 1 small unopened wipe container and up to $20 in quarters (25-cent coins) for the vending machine. Visitors may not give or ask for money or property for the person, and electronic devices stay out of secure areas. Arrive early, because security processing takes time.
How do mail and money reach someone at Eden?
Letters go to PO Box 1617, Eden, TX 76837, with full name, Alien Number and housing location. Mailed cash is returned. A money order or cashier's check made out to the person can be handed in during visiting hours. For mailing, sources conflict. ICE gives Core Civic Inmate Trust, Facility-EDC, P.O.

Show the name, commissary number, facility and A-number, and enclose no letters. Packages need deportation officer approval; call extension 62261 first.
