We study the cross sections for the electro-production of $P_c(4312)$ particle, a recently discovered pentaquark state, in electron-proton collisions assuming possible quantum numbers to be $J^{P}=\frac{1}{2}^\pm, \frac{3}{2}^\pm$. $\sqrt{s}$ is set to the energy of the future Electron Ion Collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory, in order to asses the possibility of the measurement in this facility. One can discriminate the spin of $P_c(4312)$ by comparing the pseudorapidity distribution in two different polarization configurations for proton and electron beams. Furthermore, the parity of $P_c(4312)$ can be discerned by analyzing the decay angle in the $P_c \rightarrow p +J/\psi$ channel. As the multiplicity of $P_c$ production in our calculation is large, the EIC can be considered as a future facility for precision measurement of heavy pentaquarks.
