Uchiko Station opened on 1 May 1920 as a terminus of the privately built Ehime Railway, a light railway line that ran from Wakamiya Junction near present-day Iyo-Nagahama. The line was nationalised on 1 October 1933 and re-gauged to 1,067 mm in October 1935, at which point the station became part of the Uchiko Line. Japanese National Railways later built a new Uchiko branch of the Yosan Line; the track at Uchiko was re-aligned and elevated, and the rebuilt station reopened on 3 March 1986. JR Shikoku took control on 1 April 1987 with the JNR privatisation. The Uwakai limited express now stops here.

The station's wooden signboard renders the name in the pre-war kyūjitai form "内子驛" rather than the modern "内子駅".
