ABSTRACT: HLA genotyping by next-generation sequencing (NGS) has evolved with significant advancements in the last decade. Here we describe full-length HLA genotyping of 11 loci in 612 individuals comprising a dengue vaccine cohort from Cebu province in the Philippines. The multi-locus individual tagging NGS (MIT-NGS) method that we developed initially for genotyping 4-6 loci in one MiSeq run was expanded to 11 loci including HLA-A, B, C, DPA1, DPB1, DQA1, DQB1, DRB1, and DRB3/4/5. This change did not affect the overall coverage or depth of the sequencing reads. HLA alleles with frequencies greater than 10% were A*11:01:01, A*24:02:01, A*24:07:01, A*34:01:01, B*38:02:01, B*15:35, B*35:05:01, C*07:02:01, C*04:01:01, DPA1*02:02:02, DPB1*05:01:01, DPB1*01:01:01, DQA1*01:02:01, DQA1*06:01:01, DQB1*05:02
