How to Resize an Image to 30KB Online
The 30KB target is set automatically. Click the resize button and the tool handles the rest.

Common use cases
Online exam portals, school enrollment forms, and certain government job applications ask for photo uploads specifically in the 20–30KB range. This tool handles that target precisely.
30KB is a common exam portal limit
Competitive exam authorities (SSC, UPSC, banking portals) typically require candidate photos between 20KB and 50KB. Submitting a file outside this range either blocks form submission or causes your application to be flagged during review. Targeting exactly 30KB avoids both issues.
Frequently asked questions
Why do exam portals require such small photo sizes?
Exam portals process millions of applications. Small file sizes reduce database storage, speed up document verification, and ensure the system remains fast under high load during application periods.
Can I use this tool for signature image uploads too?
Yes. Many portals require both a photo and a signature scan under 30KB. Upload each separately and download the result for each.
What pixel dimensions should my photo be before uploading?
Most portals specify 200×230 or 300×350 pixels for passport-style photos. Resize to the required dimensions first using a pixel resizer, then use this tool to bring the file size to 30KB.
Is the compressed image accepted by JPEG validators?
Yes. The output is a standard JPEG file that passes all common image validators and is accepted by all major form upload systems.
