What is the required size for a visa photo?

Most online visa systems recommend a file size between 100KB and 240KB, depending on the country and platform. Many portals set a hard limit around 200KB.

Why was my visa photo rejected?

Common reasons include file size being too large, wrong dimensions, incorrect background, or unclear facial details that fail automated checks.

Is 200KB safe for visa photo uploads?

Yes. 200KB works for many major visa systems, including U.S. DS-160, Schengen, Canada, Australia, UK, Singapore and others, providing a good balance of clarity and size.

Will compression reduce biometric accuracy?

PixSize compresses while aiming to keep essential facial detail intact, so your visa photo remains clear enough for biometric verification and manual review.
