Make your photos fit.

Compress an image to under 50 KB

Many application forms cap photos at 50 KB. Add your photo and download a JPG that fits, at the best quality the limit allows.

Photos are never enlarged.

Format

JPG works everywhere. WebP is smaller. PNG keeps transparency but is large. iPhone HEIC photos are saved as JPG.

How it works

50 KB is enough for a clear passport-style photo or a small product image, but not for a full-size phone photo. This page fits your image within 1200 pixels and then finds the best JPG quality that stays under 50 KB.

If the photo still doesn't fit, the tool reduces the dimensions a little more and shows you the final size, so you're never guessing whether the upload will be accepted.

Use "Compare" to check the result at actual size before you upload it.

Questions

Why is my result 48 KB and not exactly 50 KB?

The tool aims to stay safely under the limit with the highest quality that fits. Being slightly under means the form will accept it.

Can I do several photos at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like. Each one is compressed to under 50 KB and you can download them all as a ZIP.

My photo is a PNG. Is that okay?

Yes. It's saved as JPG, which is much smaller for photos. Transparent areas become white.
