Sumario:A case of chikungunya virus infection was imported from Thailand into Slovenia in late 2018. The infection was diagnosed using real-time reverse transcription-PCR, the virus was isolated in cell culture, and the whole genome was sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis of the nearly complete viral genome indicated that the virus belongs to the Indian Ocean lineage but does not possess the A226V mutation in the envelope protein E1.
