Are you planning on going to Anguilla, St. Barts, Saba?? If not, you can wait until after. For SXM, your passport just needs to be valid until you go home. Other islands, you may need 6 months after you travel.

Our passports run out end of December 2018. We plan to go to SXM the first two weeks of October. Should we renew now or can we wait til after October? Up to you but why wait? As Carol stated, a trip to another island may be a problem. I renewed ours back earlier in the year. Did everything myself (with the exception of photos) and it only took around 10 days or less.

I pretty much agree with Carol as long as I absolutely knew I wasn’t planning on visiting any of the near islands to Sint Maarten - but then, I always wait until the last day to pay my taxes too. I just hate to give any government, be it local, State or Federal, any more of my money than I have to any earlier than I have to.
Respectfully,

Super thanks once again but we don't have Global Entry but I will definitely make a note of the fact.

That’s interesting, all these years even after all of our renewals of passports, our passport numbers have never changed, it’s always been the same numbers for me and my wife. Maybe it’s just us, strange.
I got it, comes with the job, sorry, you are correct, your number does change every time you renew it. My situation is a little different.
