Bryan Police Department

The Bryan Police Department handles sex offender registration for people living within Bryan city limits. BPD processes registrations at its headquarters during regular business hours. If you are required to register and you live in Bryan, you must appear at BPD in person with valid identification and documentation from your case. Officers collect required data, take a photo, and report everything to the Texas DPS for inclusion in the public registry.

Bryan and College Station share a close geographic relationship, and Brazos County wraps around both cities. BPD works with the Brazos County Sheriff's Office on registration coordination when offenders move between city and county jurisdiction. Moving from an unincorporated Brazos County address into Bryan requires re-registering with BPD within seven days.

Note: Because Bryan and College Station are adjacent, some addresses can be confusing. If you are not certain whether your address falls inside Bryan city limits or somewhere else, call BPD before coming in to register.
