Bandō Station opened by the privately run Awa Electric Railway (later the Awa Railway) on 15 February 1923. After the Awa Railway was nationalized on 1 July 1933, Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over control of the station and operated it as part of the Awa Line. On 20 March 1935, the station became part of the Kōtoku Main Line. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Shikoku.[6][7]
In fiscal 2019, the station was used by an average of 390 passengers daily[8]
