Parung Panjang Station (PRP) is a railway station that is located in Parung Panjang, Bogor Regency, Indonesia. During the colonial era, this station was important due to the location that is midway between Merak Station and Jakarta Kota Station. Before, the station was the last station that has been upgraded to receive an electrified train. But now, the last station changed to Rangkasbitung Station. The station is located in front of Parung Panjang Market. The road in front of the station is a road from Curug, many commuter from Curug uses this station to go to Jakarta.

Before functioning as a station that only served KRL Commuterline trips, this station had also served KRL and local train trips to Rangkasbitung Station and to Merak Station, and had also served express train trips such as the Krakatau Express train. On 1 April 2017, this local train service was finally removed and replaced by KRL Commuterline with the Tanah Abang–Rangkasbitung route, following the Krakatau Express train which was also removed on 17 July 2017. Parung Panjang Station is also a train station that uses new buildings on the Merak–Tanah Abang railway besides Maja, Kebayoran and Palmerah Stations.
