The bureau of prison has a list of items they allow and it applies to all federal prison camps. Your ID is a must. The best thing to do in my opinion is to call the institution which you have been assigned and ask for a list of item permitted and also those that are necessary.

The reason I say that is because each prison camp is under the control of a warden or a camp administrator and they have the final say in the matter with their own rules.

Prison camps are more lenient than actual prison, asking question is your best bet because I have seen inmates come into the camp with their personal watches and even their sneakers.

What about my wedding ring?

Yes, you can have your wedding ring but it has to be a plain band with no stones on it. Again, call the institution to be certain because rules change.

Important note:

Make sure you bring the items you want during check-in because once you are in, family members will be limited to what they can mail to you.
