BNI City station (Indonesian: Stasiun BNI City) is a station for the Soekarno-Hatta Airport Rail Link and KAI Commuter service. Bank Negara Indonesia (BNI) holds the naming rights for the station,[2] which was known as Sudirman Baru station (English: New Sudirman station) during construction period. The station is located in Central Jakarta,[3] on the north bank of West Flood Canal, about a hundred meters from Sudirman Commuter Rail station. The station is part of Dukuh Atas TOD.

Initially this station was named Sudirman Baru because it is located on the west side of Jalan Jenderal Sudirman. This means that the name of this station must be distinguished from the Old Sudirman Station, which only serves Commuter Line routes. Bank Negara Indonesia (BNI), Kereta Api Indonesia (KAI), and Railink have agreed to name this station as BNI City as a strategy to create synergies between state-owned enterprises. BNI participates in managing this station with PT Railink and PT KAI; by providing supporting facilities such as ATMs and ticket machines.[4]
