We report a case of autochthonous Taenia saginata infection in Timor-Leste. Screening of 1,121 schoolchildren revealed a 0.4% prevalence of human taeniasis. Genetic analysis of the mitochondrial cox1 gene identified group A lineage. Our findings fill a considerable geographic data gap and highlight the need for integrated One Health control strategies. © 2026, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
