Abstract
We identified and characterized the first 2 Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains with high-level azithromycin resistance isolated in Japan. These were in the clade of ceftriaxone- and azithromycin-resistant strains isolated in Australia and the United Kingdom. The multilocus sequence typing, N. gonorrhoeae multiantigen sequence typing, and N. gonorrhoeae sequence typing for antimicrobial resistance types of these strains were found in gonococci from eastern Asia.
