• Kisei Line: Dōjōji ⇄ Inahara

Wasa Station opened on 14 December 1930 on what was then the Kisei-Nishi Line. The line was incorporated into the Kisei Main Line on 15 July 1959 when the through route between Kameyama and Wakayama was completed. Freight handling ended in 1971 and parcel handling in March 1985, when the station was made unstaffed. Operation passed to JR West on 1 April 1987 at privatisation. A new corrugated-pipe station building replaced the original wooden structure on 1 October 2016, and ICOCA service began on 14 March 2020.

The 2016 replacement station building is a simple shelter built from a corrugated steel pipe 3.5 metres in diameter, partly buried in the ground.
