Advantages of a Zip Code:
St. John is part of the U.S. Virgin Islands, a United States territory.
As a result we have a Zip Code: 00830
There are many benefits to having a zip code that our neighboring islands don’t enjoy:
- Being under the US flag and the protection of the U.S.A. for starters.
- No passport is required for US citizens to travel from the U.S.A. to the U.S.V.I. and back
- The US Postal Service – first class letters for only $0.41; Express Mail/Priority Mail services are available too.
- Inexpensive long distance phone calls to the USA – even free long distance with some cell service providers.
- And you can bring your pet here without quarantine!
These are just a few of the advantages of being a Caribbean island under the U.S. flag.
So c’mon down and stay a while!!
