Clostridioides difficile hypervirulent clade 2 lineages are the major lineages responsible for the outbreaks in North America and Europe. However, the genome sequences of Japanese isolates are scarcely available. Herein, we report the draft genome sequence of C. difficile strain TMD0138 sequence type 97 (ST97), belonging to hypervirulent clade 2, isolated in Japan.
