Resize Image to 10 KB

A 10 KB limit is common for signatures and thumbnail photos on older government portals. This page is set to 10 KB: choose your image and download a JPG under the limit, kept as sharp as that size allows. For signatures, the dedicated signature resizer also cleans up the paper background.

Frequently asked questions

Will a 10 KB photo look blurry?

At passport-photo dimensions (around 200 × 230 pixels) 10 KB is enough for a clear face. Large phone photos are scaled down first, which is what keeps them sharp at such a small size.

Is my photo uploaded to a server?

No. The image is resized and compressed inside your browser, on your own device. Nothing is uploaded, so it is safe for ID photos and signatures.

What format is the resized file?

JPG (JPEG), which almost every online application form asks for. Transparent areas in PNG images become white.

My form also asks for exact dimensions in pixels. Can I set them?

Yes. Choose "Exact pixels", enter the width and height from the notification (for example 200 × 230), and the photo is cropped to that shape from the centre before it is compressed to the KB limit.
