Ficus tikoua Bur. is an important medicinal plant in South China. The complete cp genome sequence is 160,556 bp in length and presented a typical quadripartite structure including one large single copy (LSC) region of 88,620 bp, one small single copy (SSC) region of 20,184 bp, and two inverted repeats (IRs) region of 25,876 bp. The overall GC content was 35.88%. A total of 131 genes were identified, including 86 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight ribosomal RNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that F. tikoua was closely related to F. religiosa.
