President Donald Trump unveiled a new limited-edition U.S. passport featuring his likeness to commemorate the country’s 250th anniversary of independence. The announcement was made on Friday via Trump’s Truth Social platform, where he posted an image of the proposed passport with the phrase, “Welcome, but be good!”

The passport rendering shows a stern-faced Trump leaning on a desk, accompanied by his signature and the text of the Declaration of Independence in the background. This image appears to be derived from a portrait taken by White House photographer Daniel Torok. The opposite page of the passport design displays a painting of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, along with the inscription “United States of America 250.” The White House also shared the design, labeling it the “PATRIOT PASSPORT.”

The U.S. State Department had previously announced that a commemorative passport with custom artwork would be introduced starting July 6. However, it did not immediately respond to inquiries about whether the Trump-themed edition aligns with these plans. In April, a department official indicated that such passports would only be available through in-person appointments in Washington, D.C., and only while supplies last.

This move marks the first time a sitting U.S. president’s image is featured on official American travel documents. It fits within a broader pattern of Trump’s efforts to imprint his personal identity on government institutions. These actions include erecting presidential banners outside federal buildings and plans from the Treasury Department for Trump’s signature to appear on the one-dollar bill. His name was also briefly added to the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, though a court subsequently ordered its removal.
