We report the complete genome sequence of ceftriaxone-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae SS3160, harboring the mosaic penA -60.001 allele. This Japanese isolate has a unique sequence type (ST), ST13429, which was determined by multilocus sequence typing from the chromosome sequence (2,214,955 bp). It carries two plasmids, pConjugative (39,057 bp) and pCryptic (4,207 bp).
