Sources disagree on this
photograph pixel size and file size band
RRB publishes no central pixel size. Its FAQs say the photo should be "as per Indian passport size" and that all dimensions are shown on the Upload Profile Documents page itself. The KB band also moves per notice: 30–70 KB (CEN 03/2024, 08/2024), 40–70 KB (CEN 09/2025), 50–100 KB (others).
How we handle it: We produce the passport shape and target 50–70 KB, which sits inside every documented band. Check the figures your own CEN shows at upload; if it states a pixel size, use the custom tool with those numbers.
Requirements change with each notification cycle. Always check your own notification before you submit. We cannot guarantee acceptance.
How to prepare it · Common reasons this gets rejected
How to prepare it
- Start from the original photo or scan, not a screenshot of one.
- Use a plain, evenly lit background with no shadow behind you.
- Leave a little space above the head — we crop to the required shape for you.
- Do not add filters, borders or text — portals reject altered images.
Common reasons this gets rejected
- The file is larger than the 70 KB limit.
- The file is smaller than the 50 KB minimum, which some portals also reject.
- The file is not JPEG.
- A phone photo uploaded sideways because of its orientation tag.
- A patterned or dark background where a plain one is required.
