Would be nice to know what test documentation needs to be presented upon landing in STT.
Have not been tested yet. Is there an internationally excepted document for a COVID quick test??
Edited: For STT looks like you down load your test results using the
U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS TRAVEL SCREENING PORTAL
You must time it so after you get tested and then Date you receive results must be within five days of travel. ( might have to do a dry run to see how this all works )
Then you will get approval to travel thru the portal.

Friend went through this week. You need to print out the completed form from the travel portal and bring a copy of your COVID test results. In today’s press conference Governor Bryan said that for those 15 years and older the test must be taken within 5 days.

So if the USVI and the BVI require test/results within five days....
Here is our possible TESTING itinerary for January...
GET TESTED 1: Get tested before flying into STT. (Jan 1,2021) Stay in STT for 4 days before travel to BVI.
GET TESTED 2: Get tested before ferry to BVI ( Jan 4, 2021) Sail in BVI for 7 days
GET TESTED 3: Get tested before ferry back to STT. (Jan 12, 2021) Fly home Jan 13,2021.
This is going to be crazy.... unless USVI and BVI come to some sort of TESTING agreement.

This USVI Govt SITE was Updated 9/21 and should be checked over time: https://usviupdate.com/As of the 9/21 update you must have a Covid-19 test "TAKEN and received within 5 day of travel" As far as the illustrated Jan travel itinerary by cwoody: It is pretty much an unknown at least on the USVI side if the restrictions will be the same or have changed [more or less restrictive] by your Jan. dates. Our Governor is keeping the situation looked at and responding to change. I see many things that we have always accepted and gotten used to changing dramatically - with many never returning - what is being called :New Normal"
