It was founded in 1900 as Novokiyevskoye (Новоки́евское).[3] In 1936, it was given its present name, for Lieutenant Mikhail Kraskin, who died in a border conflict.[4] Urban-type settlement status was granted to it in 1940.[4]

In 1995, a 30-kilometer (19 mi) long highway, an upgrade from heavily rutted gravel road, Kraskino (Makhalino station) and Hunchun (Chenglingzi border) was completed. In June 1997, the new Russian Kraskino Customs Office Building was opened.
