Trump to appear on limited-edition US passport for 250th anniversary
2 min readUS President Donald Trump will feature on a limited-edition American passport being issued to mark the country’s 250th anniversary in July, according to officials.
The commemorative passports are part of nationwide plans to celebrate 250 years since the Declaration of Independence, with special events scheduled across the United States next year.
Images released by the White House and the State Department show Trump’s portrait integrated into the passport design alongside elements of the US flag and the Declaration of Independence.
The design also includes his signature in gold.
A separate page features an illustration of the Founding Fathers signing the Declaration of Independence.
State Department spokesperson Tommy Piggott said the special passports will be released as part of the anniversary celebrations and will be available to US citizens applying through the Washington Passport Agency, with distribution beginning this summer and continuing while supplies last.
Current US passports include historical imagery such as the Statue of Liberty, the Apollo 11 Moon landing, and references to the origins of the national anthem inspired by Francis Scott Key during the War of 1812.
The redesign is the latest in a series of branding efforts linked to Trump during his administration, with his image appearing across multiple federal initiatives tied to the 250th anniversary.
Earlier this year, national park passes were updated to include his image alongside George Washington, while draft designs for a commemorative $1 coin also feature Trump’s profile and imagery referencing a campaign rally following a 2024 assassination attempt.
Other proposals and changes have included attempts to rename New York’s Penn Station after the president and the addition of his name to the Kennedy Centre in Washington, DC, alongside former President John F Kennedy, following a board decision.
Plans have also included large-scale visual displays of Trump’s image on federal buildings and proposed architectural projects in the capital.
Officials say the passport release forms part of broader efforts to mark the 250th anniversary year with commemorative designs and national events.
