How long can I visit the prison after sentencing?

Under normal circumstances, it should take about a month to be sent to prison after the judgment takes effect. The appeal period is within ten days from the date of judgment, and the judgment will take effect ten days later. After the judgment comes into effect, the court will issue corresponding execution documents to the detention center within ten days, and then the detention center will transfer them to the prison. However, it will take some time for the detention center to wait until a certain number of people are transferred to prison in batches. Of course, if the remaining sentence is less than three months, it will be executed directly in the detention center without being transferred to prison. The detention center will allocate prisons according to the age and number of years served. For example, a person sentenced to 1 year spent half a year in a detention center, with only the second half of his sentence left. The detention center will choose to stay in the detention center to serve his sentence. No matter how many years they are sentenced, those who need to serve their sentences 1 year or more, 18 years old or younger are assigned to juvenile detention centers, and 18 years old or older are assigned to adult prisons. As for how long it takes to be sent to prison, the detention center will decide the time according to the number of people sent. If there are only 1 person or less than 3 people, you need to wait, and when the number reaches a certain number, you will be sent to prison. This time is usually 30 days to half a year from the date of the judge's verdict, which means there is no specific time. Legal basis: Article 230 of the Criminal Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that the time limit for appeal and protest against a judgment is ten days, and that for appeal and protest against a ruling is five days, counting from the second day after receiving the judgment and ruling.
