The black and white image shows the new first lady wearing a dark business suit, resting her hands on a reflective table.
It was shot by Regine Mahaux, a Belgian photographer, who has photographed the Trump family previously including Mrs Trump’s official portrait from her first stint in the role.
It comes after Mrs Trump drew attention for wearing a distinctive hat to her husband’s inauguration.
The wide-brimmed headpiece drew notice after Mr Trump went to kiss her cheek, but could not get close enough.
Mr Trump’s own official portrait was released earlier this month and drew comparisons with his police mugshot.
