These passports will be provided at no additional cost to applicants and will continue to be issued until supplies run out.
The released design draft features an engraving-style portrait of President Donald Trump on the inside cover. Below the portrait is a signature in gold ink, and the background combines images of the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. flag.
Another page features the iconic painting by artist John Trumbull, depicting the signing of the Declaration of Independence, while the back cover uses a design based on the original U.S. flag adopted in 1777. The number "250" is added to the center of the 13 stars, symbolizing the 250th anniversary of the nation's founding.
State Department spokesperson Tommy Pigott stated, "This passport will feature a customized design and enhanced images while maintaining the same security features that make the U.S. passport the most secure document in the world."
This passport is part of the "America 250" project commemorating the founding of the United States. The project reportedly includes a variety of events, such as car races on the Washington National Mall and official White House ceremonies.
