Who Is Required To Register as a Sex Offender?
Pursuant to local law, any person who is convicted or found not guilty by reason of insanity of a sexually criminal offense against a minor or a sexually violent offense on or after July 1, 1994 in a court of the Virgin Islands, a foreign court, or a federal or military court shall register their names on the sex offender registry maintained and housed by the Virgin Islands Department of Justice. However all persons convicted of a sex offense, as defined by federal law, are also required to register in the Virgin Islands if they are employed, attend school, or reside in the territory.
