President Trump will be the first sitting U.S. president to be honored with his likeness on an American passport. The design, as revealed by the State Department, aims to blend patriotic imagery with a tribute to the current administration. While the passport maintains its world-class security features, the addition of these personalized elements marks a significant departure from tradition. Corriere della Sera notes this as a notable event, reflecting a particular American approach to presidential commemoration.

Mentre gli Stati Uniti celebrano il 250esimo anniversario a luglio, il Dipartimento di Stato si sta preparando a rilasciare un numero limitato di passaporti dal design speciale per commemorare questa storica occasione. Questi passaporti presenteranno grafiche personalizzate e immagini migliorate, pur mantenendo le stesse caratteristiche di sicurezza che rendono il passaporto statunitense il documento piรน sicuro al mondo.
