The Phileo Damansara MRT station is a mass rapid transit station in Kuala Lumpur, serving the Phileo Damansara Commercial Centre and Sections 16, 17, 17A and 19 of Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia. The station itself is located next to the Kuala Lumpur-Selangor state border.

The station is on the MRT Kajang Line and was opened on 16 December 2016 under Phase One operations of the line (then known as the MRT Sungai Buloh-Kajang Line).

Station location The station adopts the standard elevated station design of the MRT Kajang Line with two levels. However, unlike most of the elevated stations, the station features an island platform.

The station is located on the eastbound carriageway of the Damansara Link section of the Sprint Expressway, near the Phileo Damansara interchange. Despite being named after and serving the Phileo Damansara area, which is a part Petaling Jaya in the state of Selangor, the station itself is situated in the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur. The station and railway tracks leading into the station lie directly beside the Selangor-Kuala Lumpur border.

The location was formerly occupied by a Shell petrol station and a second-hand car dealership. The headquarters of The Star newspaper is located nearby. A golf course (Kelab Golf Perkhidmatan Awam) is located directly north of the station.
