Resize Image to 20 KB Online
Upload limits like "maximum 20 KB" are common on government portals. Choose your image and this tool finds the highest quality that still fits under 20 KB, or set exact pixel dimensions too.
Sizes above are the most common requirements in SSC, IBPS, RRB, UPSC and state commission forms. Always match the exact size stated in your notification.
Why online forms reject photos
Recruitment portals check three things automatically: the file type (almost always JPG/JPEG), the pixel dimensions and the file size in kilobytes. A phone photo is usually 3–5 MB and thousands of pixels wide, so it fails all three. This tool crops the image to the exact pixel size, then adjusts JPEG quality until the file lands inside the KB range — all inside your browser.
Photo checklist for government exam forms
Use a recent colour photo with a plain white or light background, face centred and covering about 70% of the frame, eyes open and looking at the camera, no cap or dark glasses. Scan or photograph your signature in black ink on white paper, cropping tightly around it. Many recent notifications (SSC, IBPS) also ask for a left-thumb impression and a handwritten declaration — presets for both are included.

Your photo is processed with the browser's own canvas — nothing is uploaded to any server. You can even switch to airplane mode after the page loads and it will still work.
