Do I need a passport to fly to and from St. John (USVI) and STT (St. Thomas Airport)?

Question

I am leaving in a week and cannot get a straight answer on whether or not I need a passport to fly into STT (St. Thomas Airport) going to St. John in the US Virgin Islands? Some say I do, others state I just need my driver's license and certified birth certificate. Can someone help me please????

Answer 1

You do not need a passport to fly within or between any U.S. states or territories.  If you START in a U.S. state or territory and LAND in a U.S. state or territory, you do NOT need a passport.  See site below and read carefully.  Esp. note this sentence.

Note: "The passport requirement does NOT apply to U.S. citizens traveling to or returning directly from a U.S. territory."

Answer 2

If you are a US citizen NO passport is needed to fly to the US Virgin islands.

Traveling to and from U.S. Territories

U.S. Citizens traveling to and returning directly from a U.S. territory are not considered to have left the U.S. territory and do not need to present a passport.

U.S. territories include:

▪ American Samoa

▪ Guam

▪ Northern Mariana Islands

▪ Puerto Rico

▪ Swains Island

▪ U.S. Virgin Islands

Yes, you will need your VALID photo ID and birth certificate. It's the only way they will know you are a US citizen (birth certificate) and ID is really you.

Good Luck)
