I am moving to St Thomas in June or July. I am going to attend the University. Anyways on to the question. I think I read some where on here that if you you bring your car you have to change your driver's license to a VI driver's license. Since I am going to be there just for school and not there all year round do I need to get my driver's license changed? What if I buy a car when I get there, do I still need to?
P.S. this is site is a huge help in preparing for my move. Keep up the great work.. I will have been checking back daily to see everything that has added..

Generally when you move here you have three months to get a local license. I don't think they consider being in school moving here. Students are usually excempt from these things.

Perhaps what you read was in regard to the license plate on the car. If you bring a car here, you must immediately get VI plates. You can't drive on VI roads legally with stateside plates.
