    I Don’t Know Whether a Bond Is Available

    ICE detention does not automatically mean a bond has been set. Review the requirements and when legal advice may be needed.

    What Families in Louisiana Need to Know

    An immigration bond for someone detained in Louisiana is part of the federal immigration process, not Louisiana state or parish criminal bail. The person’s current detention location still matters because the detention facility, ICE field office and immigration court may be in different places.

    For a complete explanation of the process, payment and collateral options, and what happens after a bond is submitted, learn how immigration bonds work.

    Where Is the Person Detained in Louisiana?

    ICE may use detention facilities in several parts of Louisiana. Choose the city or facility you recognize below. If you only know where the person was taken into custody — or you’re not sure where they were transferred — use our detainee locator guide first.

    Facility information can change. Confirm the person’s current detention location before traveling, mailing documents or relying on facility-specific instructions. Our location guides reference official ICE and government information where available.

    Arrest Location May Not Be the Detention Location

    Someone taken into ICE custody in New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Lafayette, Shreveport or another Louisiana community may later be detained somewhere else. Many Louisiana immigration detention facilities are located in smaller communities away from the major cities, so confirming the current detention location is especially important.

    Our Step-by-Step Guide

    If you don't know where the person is or don't have the A-Number, our guide walks you through the search process step by step.

    Detention Facility, ICE Office and Immigration Court Are Different

    These locations serve different purposes and may be in different places. Confirm the current detention facility before relying on an ICE office or court address.

    Detention Facility

    Where the person is physically being held.

    ICE Field Office

    Handles certain federal immigration custody and enforcement matters.

    Immigration Court

    Handles the person's immigration case.

    Immigration court assignment depends on the detention location and the individual case. Several Louisiana facilities are administratively connected with LaSalle Immigration Court in Jena, while others are connected with Oakdale Immigration Court. Confirm the court from the person’s latest hearing notice and official EOIR case information.

    If the Bond Amount Has Already Been Set

    If ICE or an immigration judge has already set the amount, you can start with Amistad from anywhere. Send us the information you have, and we’ll explain what is still needed. You do not need to travel to the detention facility to begin.

    What to Have Ready

    Start with what you have. We'll explain what's still needed.

    Full legal name
    A-Number, if available
    Current detention facility, if known
    Bond amount, if already set

    Compare Ways to Move Forward

    Depending on the payer’s eligibility and circumstances, the full amount may be paid through the government’s process. Amistad’s surety bond option may be secured with cash collateral or qualifying property collateral. Review the costs, responsibilities and collateral requirements before deciding.

    Compare Payment Options

    How Amistad Helps

    Once the application, payment, collateral and agreement requirements are complete, Amistad prepares the surety bond documents, submits the bond electronically through ICE eBonds and stays in contact while DHS processes the submission. Amistad does not decide whether a bond is available or set the amount.
