Kokubunji Station (国分寺駅 Kokubunji-eki?) is a railway station in Kokubunji, Tokyo, Japan, operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East) and the private railway operator Seibu Railway.
Kokubunji Station is served by the Chūō Line (Rapid) and is 31.4 kilometers from the terminus of the line at Tokyo. It also forms a terminus of both the Seibu Kokubunji Line and Seibu Tamako Line.
The JR East side of the station consists of two island platforms serving four tracks. The station has a "Midori no Madoguchi" staffed ticket office. The Seibu portion of the station has one side of a former island platform (Platform 5) parallel to and north of the JR platforms. Platform 6 is now closed. Platform 7 is further north again but is above and perpendicular to the other platforms.
