We present a genome assembly from a specimen of Opisthorchis viverrini (liver fluke; Platyhelminthes; Trematoda; Opisthorchiida; Opisthorchiidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 627.20 megabases. Most of the assembly (97.89%) is scaffolded into 6 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The mitochondrial genome has also been assembled and is 18.04 kilobases in length.
