ABSTRACT
Human coronavirus HKU1 is globally endemic but genomically understudied. We present six near-complete HKU1 genomes from samples collected in coastal Kenya (2024–2025) that fell into genotypes A (
n
= 3) and B (
n
= 3). The data expand the global HKU1 genomic database and will support molecular assay development and phylogeography studies.
