WASHINGTON
\nUS President Donald Trump on Friday unveiled a new rendering of a limited-edition American passport designed to mark the United States\u2019 250th anniversary of independence, featuring his own image inside the travel document.
\nThe passport preview, shared by Trump on Truth Social, shows the president\u2019s likeness alongside historic artwork linked to the Declaration of Independence.
\n\u201cThe U.S.A.\u2019s New Passport, which says, \u2018Welcome, but be good!\u2019\u201d Trump wrote in a Truth Social post, signing the message as President DJT.
\nThe sample page features a stern-looking image of Trump positioned over the Resolute Desk, with the text of the original Declaration of Independence in the background and his signature at the bottom.
\nThe opposite page includes an image of John Trumbull\u2019s famous painting, \u201cThe Declaration of Independence,\u201d showing the Founding Fathers signing the historic document in 1776. The words \u201cUnited States of America 250\u201d are printed below the artwork.
\nLater on Friday, the White House X account posted the same passport rendering, describing it as the \u201cNew U.S. Passport to Commemorate America\u2019s 250th.\u201d
\nThe White House version also included the words \u201cPATRIOT PASSPORT.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nWhen asked whether the latest image was the official rendering for the commemorative passports, the White House directed questions to the State Department. CNN said it had reached out to the State Department for comment.
\nThe new passport image appears to feature a rendering of Trump based on the president\u2019s portrait from the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery in Washington. Other reports said the image also appears to be based on a portrait taken by White House photographer Daniel Torok.
\nThe latest design differs from renderings released by the State Department earlier this year, which showed a different image of the president.
\nPassport first announced in April
\nThe limited-edition travel document was first announced in April as part of America\u2019s 250th anniversary celebrations.
\nAt the time, it was described as \u201ca limited-edition U.S. passport to commemorate the historic occasion of America\u2019s 250th anniversary,\u201d featuring custom artwork and enhanced images on the front, back and inside covers.
\nA State Department official previously said the commemorative passport would be available from July 6 and would be issued \u201cfor as long as there is availability.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
