St. Thomas

St. Croix

Territory-Wide: No territory-wide STR law—districts rule. VI Dept. of Licensing and Consumer Affairs issues licenses; VI Tax Office collects hotel tax. Post-Hurricanes Irma/Maria, STRs are key but lightly regulated.
St. Thomas: St. Thomas STR Rules—business license, zoning via VI Dept. of Planning. Noise/parking rules are strictly enforced.
St. Croix: St. Croix STR Permits—similar, tourism-heavy, regulations are minimal.
Notes: Small pop (87,000), high tourism—STRs roll with basic licensing, but debt crisis may tighten rules.
