Seki Station (関駅^?, Seki-eki) is a train station of West Japan Railway Company (JR-West) in Kameyama, Mie, Japan. It is located 65.6 rail kilometres from the terminus of the Kansai Main Line at Nagoya Station and 5.7 rail kilometers from Kameyama Station.

Seki Station was opened on December 25, 1890 with the extension of the Kansai Railway from Yokkaichi Station to Tsuge Station. The Kansai Railway was nationalized on October 1, 1907, becoming part of the Imperial Government Railways (IGR), which became Japan National Railways (JNR) after World War II. Freight operations were discontinued from April 1, 1972. With the privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987, the station came under the control of JR-West.

Seki Station has 2 side platforms serving 2 tracks, connected by an overpass.
