Portals like IBPS check a 20 KB minimum too — set Min KB in advanced settings and confirm the range before you download. 4. ### Download the compressed JPG Check that the file size is inside the limit, then download and upload it on your form. **This page only hits 50 KB.** IBPS and other exams also check pixels. Use the [photo-signature resizer](https://sarkaridoc.com/tools/photo-signature-resizer/). ## Questions ### How do I compress an image to 50 KB? Upload the image, keep the 50 KB target, crop if you want, and download the JPG. You see the final size before you download. ### What is 50 KB photo size? 50 KB is a file-size limit, not a pixel size. The photo must be at most about 51,200 bytes. IBPS also asks 200 x 230 pixels at 20-50 KB. UP e-District keeps the photo at 50 KB and only asks that it stays clearly readable. ### Why was my photo rejected as too small on IBPS? IBPS checks both ends of the 20-50 KB range — a 12 KB photo fails just like a 70 KB one. Use the IBPS preset, or set Min KB to 20 in advanced settings, and confirm the file sits inside both limits before you download. ### What photo does the UP e-District portal need? The UP e-District FAQ keeps the applicant photo at 50 KB and every other supporting document at 100 KB, and requires uploads to be clearly readable. It publishes no pixel rule, so compressing to 50 KB with a close crop is the whole job. ### Is my photo uploaded to a server? No. Your photo stays in the browser on this page. Nothing is uploaded. ## Get your other files ready too [Resize image to 20KB Crop and compress any image down to the 20KB range.](https://sarkaridoc.com/tools/resize-image-to-20kb/)[Compress image to 100KB Crop and compress any image down to the 100KB range.](https://sarkaridoc.com/tools/resize-image-to-100kb/)[Photo and signature resizer Resize your photo and signature together and download both in one ZIP.](https://sarkaridoc.com/tools/photo-signature-resizer/) ## Everything else about this tool Portals and exams that ask for a 50 KB image | Exam | Dimensions | File size | Format | Verified | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [IBPS photo (PO/Clerk/RRB)](https://sarkaridoc.com/exams/ibps-clerk/) | 200 x 230 px preferred | 20-50 KiB | JPG | 2026-09-04 | | [IBPS left thumb impression](https://sarkaridoc.com/exams/ibps-rrb/) | 240 x 240 px (200 DPI) | 20-50 KiB | JPG | 2026-09-01 | | [UP e-District photo (income/caste/domicile)](https://edistrict.up.gov.in/edistrictup/contact/eDistrictFAQ.htm) | No pixel rule in the FAQ; must be clearly legible | up to 50 KB | Image upload | 2026-08-10 | | [SSC photo — older notices up to ~2023 (current cycle uses live capture)](https://ssc.nic.in/SSCFileServer/PortalManagement/UploadedFiles/Instructions_CGLE_17092022.pdf) | 3.5 x 4.5 cm, frontal face view | 20-50 KB | JPEG | 2026-08-10 | Sources: IBPS scanning-and-upload guidelines via each exam's SarkariDoc page; UP e-District official FAQ and SSC CGLE 2022 application instructions (official, checked 2026-08-10).
