• Meitetsu Seto Line: Shin-Seto ⇄ Owari Seto

Seto-Shiyakusho-mae Station opened on 2 April 1905 as Oiwake Station on the privately operated Seto Electric Railway. The Seto Electric Railway was absorbed into the Meitetsu group on 1 September 1939, and the station took its present name on 20 January 1958 in recognition of its proximity to Seto City Hall. It was promoted to an express stop on 29 January 2005, and the Tranpass magnetic-fare system was introduced on 16 December 2006 in tandem with a centralised station management system. The station has been unattended since opening, with separate small structures built on each platform side at the time of the 2006 retrofit; Manaca IC ticketing began on 11 February 2011.

Because the down-line (Owari Seto direction) platform is unusually narrow, part of it was cut away in 2006 so that the station building housing the new Tranpass ticket gates could be fitted in. Separate buildings were put up on the up-side and down-side platforms, each with a single ticket machine; the up-side building has no automatic fare-adjustment machine.
