The State Department is rolling out new passports that prominently feature an image of President Donald Trump and his signature in gold lettering—the Trump administration’s latest aesthetic redesign to enshrine Trump and his personal style.
A mock-up of the new U.S. passport design the Trump administration is releasing in July 2026 to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

The new passports feature Trump’s portrait from his second inauguration on the inside cover with his signature in gold lettering at the bottom and the Declaration of Independence in the background, according to a mock-up provided by the State Department.
An image of the founding fathers signing the Declaration of Independence is featured on another page.
The passports are set to be released in July to coincide with the 250th anniversary of the U.S.
State Department spokesperson Tommy Pigott said “a limited number” of the Trump passports will be available at the Washington Passport Agency for anyone who applies.
No U.S. passport design in history has featured an image of the president and no head of any state has been pictured on a foreign passport, Georgetown University professor and passport history expert Edward Kolla told The Bulwark.
The Trump administration has implemented a government-wide aesthetic redesign featuring Trump’s name, image and personal style. The U.S. Mint is seeking approval of a $1 24-karat gold coin depicting Trump to commemorate the country’s 250th anniversary. The Department of Interior also rolled out new National Parks passes on Jan. 1 featuring Trump’s image. The president has taken several other steps to imprint his legacy on government properties, including a dramatic redesign of the White House Rose Garden and leveling the East Wing of the White House to construct a massive ballroom. His administration is also aiming to build a 250-foot triumphal arch near Arlington Cemetery to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the U.S., though it faces a potentially arduous review process. The White House also renamed the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts to the Donald J. Trump and the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts.
