Poan Station (Chosŏn'gŭl보안역) is a railway station in Poanso, Simp'o-ri, Unhŭng county, Ryanggang province, North Korea, on the Paektusan Ch'ŏngnyŏn Line of the Korean State Railway.

The station, along with the rest of the PongduriHyesanjin section, was opened by the Government Railways of Chosen () on 1 November 1937.

On 9 October 2006 an underground nuclear test was conducted at P'unggye-ri in Kilju County, causing the closure of the line for 3-4 months.
