In May 2022, the CPT noted that in the prisons it had visited, untried prisoners could have one-hour visits, and convicted prisoners could have two-hour visits. At Dordrecht Prison, convicted prisoners were allowed one unsupervised conjugal visit with their partner per month, for two hours.

At Aruba Correctional Institution (Korrectie Instituut Aruba – KIA), visits were authorised for people in remand detention and sentenced individuals, for a total of one hour and fifteen minutes per week. Plexiglass partitions used on the tables were a source of frustration and complaints.

At Centre for Detention and Correction Curaçao (SDKK), prisoners were allowed one hour of unpartitioned visiting time every two weeks.

At Point Blanche Prison in Sint Maarten, prisoners were allowed one 30-minute visit per week.

In May 2022, the CPT received a high number of complaints from individuals in remand detention at Dordrecht Prison, relating to the insufficient time they could spend outside of cells to make calls and keep in contact with their families. The insufficient number of payphones exacerbated the issue. At Vught Prison, 20 untried prisoners shared a single telephone for the whole wing. In all of the prisons visited, the prisoners could make video calls to their loved ones.

At Aruba Correctional Institution (Korrectie Instituut Aruba – KIA), both remand and convicted individuals could make 10-minute calls to their loved ones several times per day using payphones in the yard or indoors.

At Centre for Detention and Correction Curaçao (SDKK), the prisoners had access to payphones in the yard and could make calls during time spent outside of the cells. Some of the telephones were out of service.

At Point Blanche Prison in Sint Maarten, the telephone lines were destroyed by hurricanes in 2017 and were undergoing repairs. In the meantime, the prisoners could call their loved ones from a telephone in the prison offices once per week, for 5 minutes.
