We report here the nearly complete genome sequences of two human BK polyomavirus (BKV) strains recovered from two Vietnamese renal allograft recipients and belonging to subtypes IVc1 (strain VN_PBK185) and Ib1 (strain VN_PBK212). The genome sequences of VN_PBK185 and VN_PBK212 were highly similar (99.9% nucleotide identity) to the reference BKV strains VNM-1 and VNM-9, respectively.
