  • President Donald Trump unveiled a rendering of a new limited-edition U.S. passport featuring his likeness to mark the country's 250th anniversary of independence.
  • The passport mock-up, called the 'Patriot Passport' by the White House, includes Trump's signature and the text of the Declaration of Independence.
  • The State Department previously announced a commemorative passport with custom artwork would be available from July 6, with Trump-themed versions only available at in-person appointments in Washington.

President Donald Trump has revealed a design for a new, limited-edition U.S. passport that prominently features his image. The passport, intended to commemorate the nation's 250th anniversary of independence, bears Trump's signature and incorporates the text of the Declaration of Independence.

The White House shared the rendering, branding it the "PATRIOT PASSPORT." This initiative follows Trump's pattern of imprinting his personal mark on government institutions. Previously, banners bearing his image were displayed outside federal buildings, and his signature was slated to appear on the one-dollar bill. A court recently ordered the removal of his name from the John F. Kennedy Centre for the Performing Arts.

The State Department had announced in April that a commemorative passport with custom artwork would be available starting July 6. However, the Trump-themed passports are reportedly limited to in-person appointments in Washington, D.C., for as long as supplies last. Trump will be the first sitting U.S. president to be featured on Americans' travel documents.
