The station and the place were named with the first and last name of the Cossack and Russian conqueror of the Amur region in the 17th century Yerofei Pavlovich Khabarov , whose last name the city of Khabarovsk also bears. The railway line was opened on this section in 1914.
In 1934 the place was given urban-type settlement status.
