Shin-Imamiya Station opened on 22 March 1964 as a JNR station on the Osaka Loop Line between Taishō and Tennōji, straddling Naniwa and Nishinari Wards, Ōsaka. The Nankai Shin-Imamiya Station opened alongside on 1 December 1966, creating a transfer point. The Osaka Loop and Kansai Lines were separated by quadrupling on 25 March 1968, with regular Kansai Line stops following on 15 March 1972. The station passed to JR West on 1 April 1987, and on 22 March 2015 the loop-line platforms adopted the 'From the New World' theme by Dvořák as their departure melody in tribute to the nearby Shinsekai district. The Hankai Tramway Minamikasumi-chō stop, opened on 1 December 1911, was renamed Shin-Imamiya-eki-mae on 1 December 2014.

On 4 December 2025 the Nankai station became Japan's first to adopt a hashtag as part of a sub-station-name, introducing the subtitle #Maido Tsutenkaku.
