The US State Department on Tuesday said it would begin issuing passports featuring a picture of President Donald Trump as part of this year's commemorations for America's 250th anniversary.
The move comes after the US Treasury said it would begin minting a $1 coin featuring Mr Trump, and as the National Park Service put his face on some passes, alongside the likeness of George Washington.
His image has become an increasing fixture for Americans, especially in Washington where the Department of Justice and Department of Labour buildings are festooned with his photos.
State Department spokesman Tommy Pigott said a “limited number of specially designed US passports” would be released to commemorate the 250th anniversary.
A mock-up of the passport redesign shows a scowling Mr Trump surrounded by the Declaration of Independence.
A State Department official said the new designs would be available for any American citizen who applies for a passport when they are introduced. It will continue for "as long as there is availability."
There will be no extra fee and the passports will be available only at the Washington Passport Agency, the official added.
Fox News reported the passports would start to be released in the summer.
