Kai-Ueno Station opened on 30 March 1928 as a general station on the Fuji-Minobu Line, in present-day Ichikawamisato, Yamanashi Prefecture. The Fuji-Minobu Line was leased by the Railway Ministry from 1 October 1938 and nationalised on 1 May 1941, placing the station on the state-run Minobu Line. Freight handling ended in stages by 1961 and parcel handling ceased in September 1972. The station has been unattended since 1 June 1983. With the 1 April 1987 dissolution of JNR it passed to JR Central, and a new concrete station building entered service in February 2003. TOICA acceptance began on 1 October 2025. The station has a single island platform serving two tracks, reached via a level crossing.

The area around Kai-Ueno Station is associated with the ancestors of the Ichikawa Danjūrō kabuki lineage; a monument honouring Ichikawa Danjūrō was erected there at the request of the 12th Danjūrō, made to a newspaper company and the former town of Mitama, and the surrounding area has been developed as the Kabuki Cultural Park.
