Riksgränsen Station (Norwegian: Riksgrensen stasjon, Swedish: Riksgränsen station) is a railway station located on the Norway–Sweden border at Riksgränsen, one kilometer into Sweden. The station opened in 1902 as part of the Ofoten Line and Iron Ore Line, and was the location of the switching between Norwegian and Swedish operations.

The station's official inauguration took place on July 14, 1903 by King Oscar II, Crown Prince Gustaf, Prince Carl and Princess Ingeborg.
