Reduce image size to 50 KB

A 50 KB limit is one of the most common rules on Indian online forms, especially for the candidate's photograph.

Pick your photo and this page compresses it to 50 KB or less automatically. It finds the highest quality that still fits the limit, so your face stays sharp.

Commonly needed for passport photos and signatures on SSC, UPSC, NEET, JEE, state PSC and job portal forms.

How to compress an image to 50 KB

  1. Choose your photo or scan. JPG, PNG and WebP all work.
  2. The target is already set to 50 KB, so the tool compresses it straight away.
  3. Check the Before and After preview and the new size.
  4. Tap Download to save your image.

Tips for the best result

  • Use a photo with a plain light background, which is what most exams ask for.
  • If the form also asks for exact pixel dimensions, use the Image Resizer or Passport Photo Maker first, then compress here.
  • Save as JPG. Almost every government portal accepts JPG or JPEG.
