Kita Shinkawa Station opened on 5 February 1914 as a station on the privately owned Mikawa Railway. The Mikawa Railway merged into Meitetsu on 1 June 1941, and the station building was rebuilt in June 1947. Freight operations ended on 25 May 1977, and a new Kita Shinkawa substation opened on 16 March 1984. With the introduction of Meitetsu's centralised station-management system on 25 August 2005 the station became unattended, the Tranpass magnetic-fare system launched on 14 September 2005, manaca IC support began on 11 February 2011, and Tranpass service ended on 29 February 2012.

Kita Shinkawa is one of the few Meitetsu stations where trains run on the right-hand track instead of the standard left, the result of the single-island-platform layout where both directions share the same gauntlet through Chiryū-managed switches.
