History
Ise-Okitsu Station was opened on December 5, 1935 as a station on the Japanese Government Railways (JGR) (which became the Japan National Railways (JNR) after World War II). Freight services were suspended from October 1965. The station has been unattended since April 1, 1986. Along with the division and privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control and operation of the Central Japan Railway Company. The station has been unattended since 1990. The station building was rebuilt in 2005.
Between October 8, 2009 and March 26, 2016, the section between this station and Ieki Station was closed due to damage from Typhoon Melor. During this time, a bus line served this section of the line.
