Sterilisation of milk bottle

Hi I am a first time mom here. I am using a UV steriliser to dry & sterilise my milk bottle after washing it with baby bottle detergent, then after that I will store the cleaned bottle into a closed container. Do I still need to sterilise it before use? How long can I store it after sterilisation? Thank you.

as long as you keep the bottles closed/with the cap on, it should remain sterilized. I understand because I need to sterilize my pump parts as well so I have to remove bottles after I've sterilizer them. I think only the inside of the bottle and the teat itself needs to remain clean. :)
