J-Village Station is served by the Jōban Line. It is 235.9 km from the official starting point of the Jōban Line at Nippori Station.
The station consists of two side platforms serving two tracks. Due to the location of the station between the tracks (which enter separate tunnels immediately north), the side platforms are positioned to resemble an island platform. The platforms are built at a length of 215m which can accommodate 10-car trains, including Limited Express services. Ramps and elevators are also available for passengers, especially wheelchair users.[3][4][5]
The station is unmanned.[6] The station building was constructed 170m away from the east entrance to the J-Village Stadium, facing Naraha.[7][8] A 400m² plaza was built in front of the station.[9]
