National City Bail Bonds
National City police hold arrestees briefly, then transfer them to a county jail. A licensed agent answers every call, any hour.
After an Arrest in National City
The National City Police Department patrols the city from 1200 National City Blvd. It keeps holding cells only, not a full jail.
Adults are transferred to a San Diego County Sheriff's jail for booking. Men usually go to San Diego Central Jail and women to Las Colinas in Santee. Call us and we'll confirm where they're held.
Cases from National City are heard at the South County Regional Center, 500 3rd Ave, Chula Vista.
Our office on Front St in downtown San Diego is open 24/7. A licensed agent answers your call and can start the bond right away.
