Dallas Field Office — ICE ERO Area of Responsibility

The Dallas Field Office is one of the ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) field offices that supervise detention and removal operations across the United States. This office oversees 6 detention facilities physically located in: OK, TX.

Each ICE ERO field office has a defined Area of Responsibility (AOR). ICE’s field-office directory (updated Sep 2, 2026) lists this office’s AOR as: North Texas, Oklahoma. It lists the office at 8101 N. Stemmons Frwy, Dallas, TX 75247, phone (972) 367-2200. The same directory states that ICE’s field offices are not check-in locations; to find a check-in location, schedule or change an appointment, or update an address, ICE points to its ICE Check-in page. For further assistance after contacting the field office, ICE points to its ERO Contact Form or the ICE Detention and Reporting and Information Line, 1-888-351-4024. A non-citizen physically arrested in one AOR may be transferred to a detention facility in another AOR; ICE policy requires notice of transfer but does not require advance notice to family or attorneys.

ICE check-in locations listed under the Dallas Field Office

ICE publishes check-in locations in a Check-In Locations directory that is separate from its field-office directory. That directory (marked “Updated: 03/04/2025”; checked October 15, 2026) lists 2 check-in locations with the Dallas Field Office as the parent office. Addresses, phone numbers, appointment times and coverage areas below are ICE’s text as published. To schedule or change a check-in appointment or update an address, ICE points to its ICE Check-in page.

• Dallas, TX (Dallas Field Office): 8101 N. Stemmons Freeway, Dallas, TX 75247. Phone (214) 424-7800. Appointment times: Monday-Friday, 7 a.m.-3 p.m. Area coverage as ICE lists it: All north Texas, east Texas, and Texas panhandle cases report to Dallas.
• Oklahoma City, OK (Dallas Field Office): 1220 Sovereign Row, Oklahoma City, OK 73108. Phone (405) 764-9300. Appointment times: Tuesday-Thursday, 8 a.m.-3 p.m. Area coverage as ICE lists it: State of Oklahoma.

Facilities under the Dallas Field Office

Other facilities holding ICE detainees

ICE’s own detention statistics (the FY2026 spreadsheet released July 20, 2026) list the following facilities as holding people in ICE custody. They were not in ICE’s online facility directory when the table above was built (September 9, 2026), so their pages draw on the operator (sheriff’s office, state agency or company) and on any page ICE has published since.

How transfers between field offices work

ICE may transfer a detainee from a facility in one ERO field office’s AOR to a facility in another AOR for operational reasons (bed-space availability, medical needs, removal-flight staging). PBNDS 2011 standard 7.4 (Detainee Transfers) states that “[t]he legal representative-of-record shall be notified as soon as practicable, but no later than 24 hours after the detainee is transferred, in accordance with sound security practices.” That standard sets no deadline for updating the Online Detainee Locator System — it does not mention ODLS at all — and ICE publishes no ODLS refresh interval anywhere, so after a transfer a family should check locator.ice.gov repeatedly rather than treat one empty result as final. Family members are not notified directly.

Where cases from this office are heard

Immigration cases supervised by the Dallas Field Office are heard at EOIR immigration courts in Texas. EOIR’s administrative control list shows no immigration court seated in Oklahoma, so cases from ICE facilities there are docketed to a court in another state — check the immigration court directory for the current assignment. The courts physically located in Texas:

Detained dockets move fast — hearings can be scheduled within weeks. Find judge-level hearing links on the immigration court pages.

287(g) agreements in this office's area

Most recent agreements in the area (by signing date):

ICE names "North Texas" with no county list, so Texas agreements are not counted here: the full state list is in our 287(g) agreements table.
