History
Fussa Station opened on 19 November 1894 with the Ome Railway's Tachikawa to Ome section. It handled passengers and freight. On 25 April 1923 the Tachikawa to Futamatao section was electrified. On 9 February 1927 a freight branch opened from Fussa to a riverbank loading point. On 1 April 1944 the Ome Electric Railway was nationalised and became part of the Ome Line. The station building was rebuilt in April 1949. On 10 December 1959 the freight branch closed.
On 28 March 1961 the section between Haijima and Fussa was made double track. Freight handling ended on 10 May 1961. On 12 December 1961 the section between Fussa and Kozukue was made double track. Luggage handling ended on 1 February 1984. In November 1986 the station was rebuilt as a station building over the tracks, and a free passage opened. On 1 April 1987 the station passed to East Japan Railway Company (JR East).
Automatic ticket gates opened on 13 November 1995. Suica could be used from 18 November 2001. In April 2004 a pedestrian deck was added to the east concourse, linked to the rebuilt Seiyu store.

On 14 February 2017 the Tokyo area transport management system (ATOS) was introduced.
