This is a list of international presidential trips made by Donald Trump, the 45th president and current president-elect of the United States. Donald Trump made 19 international trips to 24 countries (in addition to visiting the West Bank) during his first presidency, which began on January 20, 2017 and ended on January 20, 2021 and will continue his second presidency on January 20, 2025.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, he did not make any international trips between February 2020 and the end of his first presidency. So far, Trump has the least amount of international travel of any president since the introduction of the Boeing VC-25, first used during Ronald Reagan's presidency.
