About UPSC Photo Resizer
UPSC Civil Services and other UPSC exams forms ask for the photo as a 20–200 KB, JPG file. This page is already set to those rules: choose your photo and download a file that fits. A recent colour photo on a white background, face covering about three-quarters of the photo, taken within the last 10 days. Guides disagree on whether the photo limit is 200 KB or 300 KB, so this page aims under 200 KB, which meets both. Rules can change from one notification to the next, so check yours; every value below can be edited.
- Choose a clear photo or scan of your photo.
- The size (20–200 KB) are already filled in. Change them if your notification says otherwise.
- Press Compress & download, then upload the JPG to the form.

Frequently asked
What is the UPSC photo size?
Most 2026 notifications ask for 20–200 KB, JPG. Always confirm against the official notification for your exam, as limits sometimes change.
Why does the form reject my photo?
Usually the file is too big, too small or the wrong shape. This page produces a JPG between 20 and 200 KB. If your picture is so small that it falls under 20 KB, the file is padded to meet the minimum without changing the picture.
Is my photo or signature uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything happens in your browser, so your documents never leave your device.
