Since 25 March 2021, this station along with Bekasi, Tanah Abang, Kranji, Jakarta Kota, Depok Baru, Bojonggede, Citayam, Parungpanjang and Angke stations officially ceased the sale of Guaranteed Daily Tickets (Indonesian: Tiket Harian Berjaminan or THB) for KRL Commuterline services.

[5] In the 17th to 18th centuries, Depok was a kawedanan area as well as a plantation founded by the landlord Cornelis Chastelein.

Given the increasing need for transporting plantations and passengers, in the late 1860s the Batavia–Buitenzorg railway line was built by the Nederlandsch-Indische Spoorweg Maatschappij, the first heavy rail company in the Dutch East Indies.

[8] On 1 November 1913, the Staatsspoorwegen officially purchased the NIS assets on the line and eventually developed this station.

[11] To the south from Depok Station, there is a KRL depot, which is the largest in Southeast Asia.
