We report the complete genome sequences of two Helicobacter pylori clarithromycin-resistant strains. Clarithromycin (CLR)-resistant strains were obtained under the exposure of H. pylori strain 26695 on agar plates with low clarithromycin concentrations. The genome data provide insights into the genomic changes of H. pylori under selection by clarithromycin in vitro.
