Haiki opened on 10 July 1897 as the terminus of Kyushu Railway's Nagasaki Line. When that line was extended to Ōmura on 20 January 1898, the new Haiki-to-Sasebo branch opened on the same day. The line was nationalised on 1 July 1907, and the railway-name reform of 12 October 1909 assigned the station to both the Nagasaki Main Line and the Sasebo Line. A rerouting of the Nagasaki Main Line on 1 December 1934 redesignated Haiki as a station of the Sasebo Line and the Ōmura Line. JR Kyushu took over on 1 April 1987, and the Haiki-to-Huis-ten-Bosch section was electrified on 10 March 1992. On 15 March 2014 the new Sasebo Rolling-Stock Centre opened on the site, an elevated station building with an east-west passageway entered service on 11 October the same year, and SUGOCA ticketing was rolled out to Sasebo and the Ōmura Line on 3 October 2024.

Although Haiki is an intermediate stop on the Sasebo Line, its track layout makes the Sasebo Line a switchback here, while still allowing trains to run through in both directions between the Ōmura Line and the Sasebo Line; the station is also the westernmost in Japan served by more than one JR line.
