Kubokawa Station opened on 12 November 1951 under Japanese National Railways as the terminus of the Dosan Line. The JNR Nakamura Line connected here on 18 December 1963, and the JNR Yodo Line was connected on 1 March 1974, making the station a three-line junction. With the privatisation of JNR on 1 April 1987 the station passed to JR Shikoku. The JNR Nakamura Line was subsequently privatised to the Tosa Kuroshio Railway on 1 April 1988, leaving Kubokawa today as a shared facility — JR Shikoku as the Dosan and Yodo Line terminus, Tosa Kuroshio Railway as the starting point of its Nakamura Line. The station is the main rail gateway to the town of Shimanto.

Kubokawa is shared by two operators with two separate station buildings: local trains for Nakamura and Sukumo start from platform 1, a Tosa Kuroshio Railway siding reached through that company's own building whose track is not connected to the JR tracks, while JR Shikoku's trains and the through limited expresses use the adjacent island platform (tracks 2 and 3) and side platform (track 4).
