Komatsu Station opened on 20 September 1897 as the terminus of the Government Railway's Hokuriku Line extension from Fukui — Ishikawa Prefecture's first railway station. It became an intermediate stop on 1 April 1898 when the line was extended to Kanazawa. With the 12 October 1909 enactment of national railway naming, the Maibara–Uotsu section was officially designated the Hokuriku Main Line. The station building was destroyed on 22 October 1932 when a fire that broke out in the town spread to it; a second-generation station building was completed on 12 April 1966. Sections of the surrounding line were progressively double-tracked and electrified through 1962–1963. Freight handling ended on 1 February 1984 and parcel handling on 1 November 1986. JNR privatisation on 1 April 1987 transferred the station to JR West. Construction to elevate the station began on 4 October 1997 and was completed on 18 November 2002, when the third-generation building entered service. Automatic ticket gates were introduced on 1 April 2017, ICOCA followed on 15 April 2017, and the platforms for the Hokuriku Shinkansen were completed in August 2022. On 16 March 2024 the Hokuriku Shinkansen began service to Komatsu with the Kanazawa–Tsuruga extension, and the conventional-line Hokuriku Main Line station transferred to IR Ishikawa Railway.

On 23 May 1983 the Imperial special train carrying Emperor Shōwa to Ishikawa's National Tree Planting Festival ran from Wakura-Onsen to Komatsu, ending its journey at Komatsu Station.
