I started a new job and employed as a Texas resident/employee. The company headquarters is in Oklahoma. Should I be paying taxes in the state of Oklahoma?

I am now a truck driver based out of Texas. However, my employer is taking out taxes for Oklahoma. My concern is, am I required to pay Oklahoma Taxes since I am now a resident of Texas and based out of the facility in Texas.

You do not need to pay OK tax if you do not perform services while physically in OK.  The fact that the paying office is there or your employer is headquartered there doesn't mean you owe tax to that state.

Ask your employer why they are withholding OK tax.  If you perform no services there, they are making your tax situation difficult as you will need to file an OK non-resident return to get it back.
