Shin-Ōsaka Station (新大阪駅, Shin-Ōsaka Eki^?) is a train station in Yodogawa-ku, Osaka, Japan. It is the western terminus of the Tōkaidō Shinkansen, and the eastern terminus of the Sanyō Shinkansen (although many trains offer through service).

Shin-Ōsaka is about 3 km from the older Ōsaka Station. The new station was built in 1964 to avoid the engineering difficulties of running Shinkansen lines into the center of the city. The JR Kyoto Line and subway Midōsuji Line provide convenient connections to other stations around the city center.

There are a side platform and three island platforms with seven tracks on the fourth floor for the Shinkansen operated by JR Central, over the platforms and tracks for the JR West Lines in the east. There is space on the east side of Platform 18 reserved for the use of the Osaka Higashi Line upon its extension to this station by 2018; space is also reserved for stairs, elevators and escalators in the concourse above. The north side of the station is in the early stages of construction for an additional Shinkansen platform, the opening of which is scheduled to coincide with the start of through service between the San'yō and Kyūshū lines in 2011. (This northern area was originally reserved for a connection from Awaji Station by Hankyu Railway, but these plans were later scrapped, and the space unused.)
