History
Kōmi Station opened on 29 April 1958 as Mino-Kōmi Station, then the terminus of the Japanese National Railways Tarumi Line extension from Tanigumiguchi. Freight and parcel handling were withdrawn in the 1970s and the station became unstaffed in 1971. With the line's transfer to the third-sector Tarumi Railway on 6 October 1984, the station was renamed Kōmi. It remained the line's terminus until the further extension to Tarumi opened on 25 March 1989, after which it became a through station. Crossing and signalling equipment were removed in December 2024, leaving a single ground-level side platform.

Notes
Since 2022 a community terakoya (after-school tutoring room) has operated inside the station building, run by a former Asahi Shimbun journalist who joined the city's regional-revitalisation programme.
