Oklahoma City possesses an ICE sub office. This office is located at 1220 Sovereign Row, Oklahoma City, OK 73108. ICE does not release a public telephone number for this sub office. However, this seems to be the main hub of detention and removal in Oklahoma. Sometimes this may be referred to as the “Oklahoma City Hold Room.”
