The U.S. Virgin Islands is served by just 5 ZIP codes, all beginning with the prefix 008, covering the three main islands of Saint Thomas, Saint John, and Saint Croix. ZIP codes in the territory range from 00802 in Charlotte Amalie to 00850 in Kingshill, spanning three island districts (counties). Saint Croix accounts for the majority of the territory's ZIP codes with 3, reflecting its status as the largest island by area. Despite their small number, Virgin Islands ZIP codes connect this Caribbean territory to the full U.S. postal network, ensuring reliable mail delivery across all three islands.
All Virgin Islands ZIP codes begin with the prefix 008, placing them within the broader U.S. territory postal designation shared with Puerto Rico. This single prefix reflects the compact geographic size of the U.S. Virgin Islands, which consists of three main islands — Saint Thomas, Saint John, and Saint Croix — all served within a narrow numeric range. The 008 prefix is unique to U.S. Caribbean territories and distinguishes mail destined for the islands from all mainland U.S. states.
Saint Croix, the largest of the three U.S. Virgin Islands by land area, has the most ZIP codes with 3, reflecting its greater geographic spread and multiple distinct communities including Christiansted and Frederiksted.
- The U.S. Virgin Islands use standard U.S. ZIP codes and the USPS mail system, even though the territory is located roughly 1,100 miles southeast of Miami in the Caribbean Sea.
- The ZIP code 00802 for Charlotte Amalie, the capital of the U.S. Virgin Islands on Saint Thomas, is one of the lowest ZIP codes in the entire United States postal system.
- Despite having only 5 ZIP codes, the U.S. Virgin Islands span three separate islands, meaning some ZIP code boundaries are defined entirely by ocean water rather than land borders.
