The station is served by the Sasaguri Line and is located 14.9 km from the starting point of the line at Yoshizuka.[2] The station is sometimes depicted on maps and timetables as part of the Fukuhoku Yutaka Line, of which the Sasaguri Line is a component.
The station consists of two side platforms serving two tracks at grade. A large station building in traditional Japanese architectural style houses a waiting room, a shop and a ticket window staffed by a kan'i itaku ticket agent. From the ticket gate, passengers enter an underpass which leads to two flights of steps, giving access to the two platforms. A large parking lot is available at the station forecourt.[2][3][4][5][6]

The station was opened with the name "Kido" by Japanese National Railways (JNR) on 25 May 1968 as an intermediate station when it extended the Sasaguri Line east from Sasaguri to Keisen. With the privatization of JNR on 1 April 1987, JR Kyushu took over control of the station.[7][8] On 15 March 2003, the station name was changed to "Kido-Nanzōin-mae".[2]
In fiscal 2016, the daily average number of passengers using the station (boarding only) was less than 323 but more than 100. It did not rank among the top 300 busiest stations operated by JR Kyushu.[9]
