During December 2016-May 2017, an outbreak of chikungunya virus infection occurred across Pakistan. The East/ Central/South African genotype was predominant. This study provides baseline data on the virus strain and emphasizes the need for active surveillance and implementation of preventive interventions to contain future outbreaks.
