The complete chloroplast genome of Akebia longeracemosa, a monoecious woody vine endemic to China, was determined. The total genome size is 158,020 bp, containing a large single copy region of 86,659 bp, a small single copy region of 19,059 bp, and a pair of inverted repeats of 26,151 bp. The chloroplast genome encodes 113 unique genes, including 79 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes and 4 rRNA genes. Among them, fifteen genes have one intron each, and three genes contain two introns. The overall GC content is 38.7%, while the corresponding values of LSC, SSC, and IR regions are 37.1, 33.6, and 43.1%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed that A. longeracemosa was closely related to A. trifoliata.
