Here, we present the complete genome sequence of Staphylococcus edaphicus strain CCM 8731, which was originally isolated from Ross Island, Antarctica. The 2,749,487-bp sequence contains 2,709 predicted genes, with a G+C content of 33.4%. The complete genome was assembled using a hybrid approach with Oxford Nanopore Technologies long-read sequencing and Illumina short-read sequencing.
