What is the required size for a digital passport photo?

Most countries require a digital passport photo between 100KB and 200KB for online submission. Some systems explicitly require a maximum of 200KB.

Why does my passport photo get rejected?

Common issues include oversized files, incorrect dimensions, low facial clarity, or failing biometric checks. Compressing to an exact KB size often helps meet upload rules.

Is 200KB suitable for passport photo uploads?

Yes. 200KB is widely accepted by many global passport systems, including those in the USA, UK, China, India, Canada and Australia, as a safe and clear size for biometric review.

Will compression affect biometric recognition?

PixSize aims to maintain essential biometric clarity while reducing file size, so your passport photo remains sharp enough for automated verification and manual review.
