• Nishitetsu Tenjin Omuta Line: Kuranaga ⇄ Nishitetsu Ginsui

Higashi-Amagi Station opened in 1952 as a stop on the Nishitetsu Tenjin Ōmuta Line in southern Ōmuta; some sources record 6 January and others 1 November as the opening date. The station building was rebuilt on 31 March 1995, producing the structure used today. Station numbering (T47) was introduced on 1 February 2017, and a centralised station management system was introduced on 1 April 2021. The station has two opposed side platforms with an effective length of six cars. Although Nishi-Nippon Railway's signage emphasises that the station is the closest Nishitetsu stop to the JR Kyushu Shinkansen's Shin-Ōmuta Station, the two are about 4 km apart with no fixed transit link between them.

Despite sharing its name with Amagi Station on the Amagi Line, Higashi-Amagi takes its name from a local placename in Ōmuta and has no direct connection with the city of Asakura, where the original Amagi is located.
