Facility Overview
The Long Beach City Jail operates at 400 West Broadway, inside the Long Beach Police Department in the downtown civic center, close to the port, the convention district, and the courthouse.
It books and holds arrests made by Long Beach officers — identification, prints, warrant checks, and custody for the period before either a bail release or a transfer into county custody.
This is a Type I facility with a 96-hour hold, a longer local window than most municipal jails in the county. That is a genuine advantage: there is real time to post a bond and get a release from Broadway rather than from the downtown Los Angeles complex twenty-five miles north.
No case is heard at this address and no bail is accepted at a court counter. The bond goes to the facility physically holding the defendant.

Hours & Visiting
Visiting runs on a scheduled, restricted calendar. Bail posting at Long Beach City Jail does not — a bond can be accepted at any hour of any day.
| Bail bonds accepted | 24 hours a day, 7 days a week |
|---|---|
| Facility type | Type I jail — holds up to 96 hours after booking |
| Jail line | (562) 570-7260, around the clock |
| Booking to bailable | Commonly a few hours once records checks clear |
| Midnight Bail Bonds | Open 24 hours, every day |
Court hours and jail hours are separate systems. The Deukmejian courthouse keeps weekday business hours; a bond is accepted here overnight and on holidays.
Booking must clear before anything posts. That is the usual reason a family is asked to wait after an arrest.
The 96-hour ceiling is a maximum, not a promise. Transfers can run earlier, so do not treat four days as a planning window.
Downtown Long Beach event and port traffic can add time to the drive. Plan for it.

Booking & Custody Process
From a Long Beach arrest to a release on Broadway.
Arrest By Long Beach PD
The arrestee is transported to the city jail at 400 W Broadway, where city custody and booking begin.
Booking & Records Checks
Photograph, fingerprints, identification, and warrant checks must clear before a bond can be accepted.
Bail Set From The County Schedule
The amount comes from the Los Angeles County bail schedule for the booked charge and is postable right away.
The 96-Hour Type I Window
Long Beach can hold up to 96 hours. Posting inside that window produces a release from this building rather than from county custody.
County Transfer
Without a bond, custody passes to the Sheriff's Department: men to the Inmate Reception Center downtown, women to Century Regional in Lynwood.
Release Or Court Transport
A bailed defendant leaves with a court date at the Deukmejian courthouse. A defendant still in custody is produced there from custody.
How To Post Bail At Long Beach City Jail
Premium on a California bail bond is set by the rate filed with the Department of Insurance under Cal. Ins. Code §1800, the starting figure comes from the Los Angeles Superior Court bail schedule, and review or reduction runs under Penal Code §1270.1.
Bail on a Long Beach arrest is set at booking under the county schedule. No hearing is required and no courtroom has to be open.
The Type I hold gives this city more local room than most. Used well, it means the release happens downtown Long Beach, minutes from home, instead of at the county complex up the 710.
Arraignment is the first judicial review of the amount — it can be kept, raised, reduced, or replaced with own-recognizance release, and either side can move to revisit bail later.
Call with a full legal name and date of birth. We confirm the booking and facility, verify the amount, and post at any hour — 10% premium, 1% down on approved credit.
If A Court Date Is Missed After Release
A bond written at Long Beach City Jail stays live through every appearance until the case resolves. A missed date can mean a forfeited bond and a bench warrant the same day, with a limited statutory window to bring the defendant back before the forfeiture becomes a judgment against the cosigner.
