• JR Kyūdai Line: Bungo-Nakagawa ⇄ Sugikawachi

Amagase Station opened on 29 September 1933 with the JNR Kyūdai Line extension from Kita-Yamada, and the line was completed through to Hita on 15 November 1934. Freight handling ended on 20 February 1971 and parcel handling on 1 February 1984. With the privatisation of Japanese National Railways on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR Kyushu. The current single-storey steel-frame/wood station building, which incorporates the Hita City Tourism Association's "Tennokuni Plaza" visitor centre alongside about 50 m² of station space, has been in use since 2 August 1996. From 1 April 2022 the Hita City Tourism Association took over ticket-window operations under simplified commission, before that arrangement ended and the on-site ticket function was abolished on 1 April 2024. Limited express trains "Yufu" and "Yufuin no Mori" stop here.

Amagase sits beside the Amagase hot-spring district, with the resort town spreading directly out from the station; National Route 210 passes on an elevated road just above the platform.
