This characterization of <i>C</i>. <i>auris</i> isolates from Lebanon revealed the exclusivity of clade I lineage together with uniform resistance to fluconazole and amphotericin B. The control of such highly resistant pathogen necessitates an appropriate and rapid recovery and identification to contain spread and outbreaks.
