My texts are still going to the old phone and not my new phone

I am transferring from an iPhone 8 to a new iPhone 12 and after set up my texts are going to the old phone and not the new phone. I did not insert the old SIM card into the new phone is that why?

iPhone 12, iOS 15

Yes, that is why. You will need to move the SIM card or activate the eSIM in the new phone.
