Interpretive Summary: The first report of the complete genome sequence of an African swine fever isolate in Cameroon in 2023, the genomic sequence is a method to characterize field isolates of African swine fever.

Technical Abstract: African Swine Fever Virus has been endemic in Cameroon since the early 1980s. Here we report on the genotype I Cameroon/2023/SBP30 genome collected from a domestic pig during the 2023 outbreak.
