Lieutenant Governor Osbert Potter on Thursday said that the U.S. Department of State has issued the authorization for the passport acceptance facilities on St. Croix and St. Thomas, to resume accepting U.S. passport applications effective Monday, November 13.
The offices will be open to the public weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on St. Croix, and from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on St. Thomas.
Until further notice, residents of St. John are encouraged to utilize the St. Thomas passport acceptance facility, due to damages sustained by the Lieutenant Governor’s Office from Hurricanes Irma and Maria on the smaller of the three main islands, according to the release.
Customers needing assistance or more information may contact the Passport Acceptance Facility on St. Croix at 340-773-6449 or on St. Thomas at 340-774-4024.
