Mycobacterium virginiense , a newly described species of the Mycobacterium terrae complex, is a cause of tenosynovitis and osteomyelitis in the United States. Here, we report the 4,849,424-bp draft genome sequence of M. virginiense strain GF75, isolated from a mud sample taken from a Japanese swine farm.
