I am planning on moving to STT this summer with friends, one of whom has a dog. I've read the Settler's Handbook about pets but it didn't mention anything about quarantining. Does anyone know if pets (specifically dogs) have to be quarantined on the island for a specific period of time?

What you need to know.
The Virgin Islands do not have any quarantine requirements. Pets traveling to the United States mainland from the Virgin Islands also will not require quarantine.
Step 1. Get your pets papers in order!
A health certificate from your veterinarian stating the animal; has not been exposed to any communicable diseases, is not sick and is up to date on shot for rabies is necessary. This certificate should be prepared within 10 days of travel. A up-to-date rabies shot is necessary. The rabies shots should be no less then 30 days prior to arrival but no longer then one year. Have these documents readily available when you are traveling.
