The Bureau of Motor Vehicles said Monday it will be implementing phased reopening protocols from today in line with Governor Albert Bryan's reopening strategy.

According the BMV release, the bureau's director, Barbara McIntosh and BMV staff are implementing the following procedures to safeguard the community and employees:

  • Customers who wish to renew vehicle registrations, obtain moving permits, permits to ship vehicles off-island, title transfers of new and used vehicles and duplicate documents, must drop off the required documents to a designated drop box at any bureau office, in a sealed envelope. Customers are required to provide pertinent contact information, such as phone number and email address. The bureau will then schedule an appointment for each customer to pick up their documents and pay for the service. Applications and a list of the required documents are available on at bmv.vi.gov. 
  • Ms. McIntosh is still encouraging the community to take advantage of the bureau’s online vehicle registration process. During the period from March 18, 2020 to May 31, 2020, the bureau will waive the requirement for inspection for any customer who renews their vehicle registration online. If customers need assistance in setting up an account or for technical assistance, email the bureau at [email protected].
  • For driver’s license and disabled placards related services, customers are required to make an appointment by calling (340) 713-4268 on St. Croix, (340) 774-4268 on St. Thomas, and (340) 776-6262 on St. John.
  • All road tests and written test for the learner’s permit are canceled until further notice.
