Ōmi-Imazu Station opened on 20 July 1974 with the inauguration of the JNR Kosei Line, in what is now Takashima, Shiga Prefecture. The station became part of JR West at the 1 April 1987 privatisation of JNR. ICOCA service began on 21 October 2006, and the same timetable revision extended most Special Rapid Service trains north to Tsuruga; because that extension required cars to be coupled and divided here, a new signal was added to track 2. Station numbering was introduced in March 2018, assigning JR-B14. The staffed Midori-no-Madoguchi ticket office closed on 30 September 2025 and was replaced the following day by a Midori-no-Kenbaiki Plus machine.

Ōmi-Imazu is the only Kosei Line station built so that trains can reverse direction back toward Ōmi-Shiotsu. Because the platforms at Ōmi-Shiotsu and beyond can handle only four-car trains, most JR West Special Rapid and Rapid services to and from Tsuruga are coupled and divided here.
