Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Oklahoma

Oklahoma is part of the jurisdiction of the Dallas Field Office of the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

The contact information for the Dallas Field Office is:

Dallas Field Office
Area of Responsibility: North Texas, Oklahoma

Dallas, TX 75247
Phone: (214) 424-7800

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.”

ICE detention is currently in flux under the Trump administration. Due to a 2025 decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals, only persons who entered the USA with inspection and admission are eligible for immigration bonds. All other persons must file a habeas corpus case in federal court to obtain release from ICE detention.

ICE officially lists two detention facilities in Oklahoma at this time.

Cimarron Correctional Facility
3200 S. Kings Hwy.
Cushing, OK 74023

Detainees held at Cimarron appear to be under the jurisdiction of the Aurora, CO, Immigration Court.

Kay County Detention Center
1101 W. Dry Rd.
Newkirk, OK 74647

Detainees held at the Kay County appear to be under the jurisdiction of the Otero, NM, Immigration Court. For some reason, the ICE detention center at Kay County is listed as being under the Chicago, IL, ICE field office. 

ICE is in the process of opening a third detention facility in Watonga, OK. The Diamondback Correctional Facility in Watonga is reopening as an ICE detention facility with a contract signed with the private prison operator CoreCivic. It is expected to start receiving detainees in the first quarter of 2026 and be fully operational in the second quarter, following renovations.
