The United States Reveals New "Patriot" Passport: How Much It Costs and Who Can Get It
The document celebrates the country's 250 years, but getting it will not be as simple as requesting a regular passport
The United States presented the "patriot passport", a new commemorative passport with Donald Trump's portrait that will be issued for a limited time to celebrate the 250 years of independence. It will serve to enter and leave the country like any standard document, but it will only be available at one office and while supplies last.
The White House released the images and the State Department confirmed that the special edition will be issued at the Washington Passport Agency, in the capital, starting July 6, 2026. According to reports, between 25,000 and 30,000 units would be issued.
The commemorative version does not have a special price: the same fees as for any U.S. passport are charged. The final cost depends on whether it is a first-time application or a renewal.
