Always check the exact requirement printed on your own form or notification. Boards change pixel sizes and KB limits between years, and some now capture the photo live instead of accepting a file.

Getting the framing right

Passport photo rules are about the face, not just the pixels. Aim for the head to fill 70 to 80% of the height, eyes roughly at the upper third, plain light background, no shadows, neutral expression, both ears visible where possible, and no glasses (India stopped accepting them for passports in 2025). Drag the preview above to place the face; the crop keeps the exact 3.5×4.5 ratio.

The tool exports at 413×531 pixels, which prints at exactly 3.5×4.5 cm at 300 DPI. If a portal asks for different pixels (for example 200×230 for IBPS), switch to the Exact size mode on the reduce image size in KB page and type them in.

Printing several copies on one sheet

Photo studios lay out eight 3.5×4.5 cm photos on a 4×6 inch print. If you print at home, place the exported file on a 1800×1200 px canvas (4×6 inch at 300 DPI) in any editor and repeat it in a 4×2 grid, leaving a small white gap for cutting.
