## Abstract

Here we present the complete genome sequence of a sulfate-reducing bacterium in the phylum Nitrospirota, Thermodesulfovibrio sp. strain TK500a, newly isolated from Nakabusa Hot Springs, Nagano prefecture, Japan. The genome comprises a 2,018,434 bp chromosome with a guanine-cytosine content of 36.9% and 2,038 protein-coding sequences.
