Click to upload or drag & drop one or more photos
JPG, PNG or WEBP — up to 20 at once, everything happens in your browserWhen 200KB is the right target
Portals that ask examiners or verifiers to actually look closely at a submitted photo (rather than just file it away) tend to set their limit around 200KB, since it's large enough to avoid visible compression artefacts on most passport-style photos. If your form mentions a range like '100KB to 200KB', aim for a result closer to 200KB using this tool for the clearest possible image.
This target rarely needs any pixel downscaling — the tool can usually reach it by adjusting JPEG quality alone, so your photo's original dimensions are typically preserved.
❓ Frequently asked questions
Will this keep my original image dimensions?
In most cases yes, since 200KB is generous enough that quality reduction alone reaches the target without needing to shrink the photo.
My form says 'between 100KB and 200KB' — what should I do?
Compress with this tool and check the resulting file size; if it lands under 100KB you have room to re-upload the original at a slightly higher quality, but most photos will land comfortably in range.
Can I compress a scanned certificate the same way?
Yes, though scanned text documents often compress to well under 200KB automatically since they contain less visual detail than a photograph.
