Sapporo Station is the starting point and terminus for most limited express services operated by JR Hokkaido. It also has the tallest building (JR Tower) in Hokkaido. Sapporo station is developing into a commercial center as large as Ōdōri Park and Susukino.

The following JR Hokkaido lines and trains pass through or terminate at Sapporo Station:

Sapporo Station consists of five platforms that are raised above street level. These raised platforms serve 10 tracks which run in an east–west direction. Two concourses run north–south below the platforms. It has a commercial facility called Paseo under the ground and JR Tower on the south side of the station. The station is also planned to become a new high-rise building and a terminal station of the Hokkaido Shinkansen that is scheduled to open in 2038.

On 16 October, 2022, due to construction of the Hokkaido Shinkansen extension to Sapporo, Platform 11 opened for passengers while Platform 1 was discontinued. The new platform can accommodate trains up to six cars long.
