The station consists of two staggered side platforms serving two tracks. A siding branches off track 1.

Management of the station has been outsourced to the JR Kyushu Tetsudou Eigyou Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of JR Kyushu specialising in station services. It staffs the ticket window which is equipped with a Midori no Madoguchi facility.[6] [7]
The station building also houses the facilities of a community radio station "FM Omura 76.3".[5] [8]
The private Kyushu Railway, in building a line to Nagasaki, had opened a track from to and Takeo (today) by 5 May 1895 and by 10 July 1897. In the next phase of expansion, the track was extended south along the east coast of Ōmura Bay, with Ōmura opening as the new terminus on 20 January 1898. It became a through-station on 27 November that year when the track was further extended to, and linking up with an earlier at, achieving through-traffic to, then known as Nagasaki. When the Kyushu Railway was nationalized on 1 July 1907, Japanese Government Railways (JGR) took over control of the station. On 12 October 1909, track from Tosu through Haiki and Ōmura to Nagasaki was designated the Nagasaki Main Line. On 1 December 1934, another route along the coast of the Ariake Sea designated as the Nagasaki Main Line. The track from Haiki through Ōmura to Isahaya became designated as the Ōmura Line. With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, control of the station passed to JR Kyushu.
In fiscal 2020, the station was used by an average of 1920 passengers daily (boarding passengers only), and it ranked 75th among the busiest stations of JR Kyushu.[9]
