Yimeng black pig is a national breed of geographical indication in China. The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Yimeng black pig was first determined in this study (Accession number MN624263). The mitogenome (16,771 bp) consists of 22 tRNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 1 control region (D-loop region). The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the Yimeng black pig enriches data resource for further study in genetic mechanism and classification.
