US to Issue Passports Featuring President Donald Trump’s Face
US to Issue Passports Featuring President Donald Trump’s Face – The United States Department of State has announced plans to introduce a limited-edition commemorative passport as part of celebrations marking America’s 250th anniversary.
According to officials, between 25,000 and 30,000 of the special passports will be issued, with availability expected shortly before July 4 at the Washington passport office.
These passports will be the default option for in-person applicants at the facility, while standard passports will remain accessible through other application channels.

The commemorative passport will feature customised artwork while maintaining standard security features. President Donald Trump’s image will appear on an interior page alongside a gold version of his signature.
The cover will also differ from the traditional design, incorporating bold gold lettering, a gold laminate American flag, and a “250” emblem marking the historic milestone.
A State Department spokesperson said the initiative is meant to honour the country’s heritage, noting that “the design reflects both national heritage and modern presentation.”
The move represents a departure from longstanding tradition, as U.S. passports typically feature historic landmarks and past presidents rather than sitting leaders.
The development is expected to generate both interest and debate ahead of the anniversary celebrations.
