• Nishi-Kyushu Line: Oogi ⇄ Zoushuku

Nishi-Arita Station is in Arita, Saga Prefecture, on the Nishi-Kyūshū Line operated since 1988 by the third-sector Matsuura Railway. The station opened on 16 March 1996 as a new infill stop on the Nishi-Kyūshū Line, 4.8 km from Arita. It is an unstaffed station with a single ground-level side platform serving a bi-directional track. The station building, a brick-faced concrete structure, is co-located with the town's Asia Cultural Exchange Plaza (Ajia Bunka Kōryū Plaza) and serves as a community facility in the former Nishi-Arita town centre.

The station building shares its premises with the town's Asia Cultural Exchange Plaza (Ajia Bunka Kōryū Plaza), making it a community facility as much as a railway station.
