Kita-Urawa Station opened on 1 September 1936 as a Ministry of Railways stop on the Tōhoku Main Line, between Urawa and Yono. The current station building was constructed in October 1968. Parcel handling was withdrawn on 14 March 1985, and operation transferred to JR East at the 1987 privatisation of Japanese National Railways. Automatic ticket gates were installed on 15 December 1992, Suica was introduced on 18 November 2001, and the View Plaza travel desk closed on 29 March 2004. The station was contracted out to JR East Station Services on 1 February 2019, platform edge doors entered service on 7 December 2019, and the Midori no Madoguchi window closed on 31 August 2022.

A monument at the west plaza commemorates the addition of that entrance and bears the name of fourth-generation Japanese National Railways president Shinji Sogō.
