How to compress an image to 200 KB or 500 KB

  1. 1

    Drop your photo into the box above

    PNG, JPEG, WebP and HEIC all work. The image stays on your device — nothing is uploaded.

  2. 2

    Tap a preset or type the maximum size

    Common limits (100, 200, 300, 500 KB, 1 MB, 2 MB) are one-tap chips. For custom sizes, type the number from the portal's error message and switch the unit to KB or MB.

  3. 3

    Click "Fix My File" and download the result

    The tool reduces quality (and dimensions, if needed) until the file fits under your limit. You get a standard .jpg ready to upload.

Common portal-upload scenarios

Each Indian government and education portal sets its own KB ceiling. These are the limits we see most often — tap the matching preset above and you're set.

Compress photo to 200 KB for UIDAI Aadhaar

The UIDAI self-service portal accepts JPEGs up to 200 KB for photo updates. Tap the 200 KB preset and the compressor will keep face detail intact while fitting the limit.

Resize photo for PAN / NSDL form (under 200 KB)

PAN application forms typically demand a passport-size JPEG between 4 KB and 200 KB. Use the 200 KB preset; the tool also keeps dimensions within passport-photo ratios when possible.

Make image under 50 KB for RRB / SSC photo upload

Railway (RRB) and SSC application portals often cap photos at 20–50 KB. Type 50 in the box — the compressor will reduce quality and dimensions in tandem to hit very small limits.

Shrink scan to 500 KB for scholarship or school forms

National Scholarship Portal (NSP), college admission and school enrolment portals usually allow 500 KB document scans. The 500 KB preset keeps text readable and signatures crisp.

Compress passport-size photo for visa & embassy uploads

Visa portals (e.g. for the US, UK, Schengen) accept photos between 240 KB and 1 MB. Pick the matching preset; output is JPEG — the format every embassy site expects.

Compress bank-document scan under 1 MB

KYC re-verification, account-opening and insurance claim portals usually allow 1 MB scans. Tap 1 MB — if you need to also stitch front and back, try the PDF Merger next.

Frequently asked questions

How can I compress an image to under 500 KB or 200 KB for a government website?

Most official submission sites have strict file-size ceilings. To make your file smaller, drop your document or photo into the tool above, type the maximum allowed size (e.g. 500 or 200) into the box or tap a preset chip, and click Fix My File. The tool dynamically adjusts quality settings entirely inside your browser until the file fits the requirement.

How do I resize a photo to 200 KB for UIDAI Aadhaar?

Drop the photo into the tool, tap the 200 KB preset chip, and click Fix My File. The output is a standard JPEG sized just under 200 KB, ready for the UIDAI self-service portal.

How do I make a passport-size photo under 50 KB or 100 KB?

Tap the 100 KB preset (or type 50 manually) and click Fix My File. The compressor reduces quality and, if needed, dimensions to fit very small limits. Faces and documents typically remain clearly legible.

Is it safe to use this tool for my ID, PAN card or passport?

Yes. You are not uploading anything. The tool processes your data directly inside your web browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your private file never traverses the internet or touches an external server — you can verify this in your browser's Network tab.

Which input formats are supported?

PNG, JPEG, WebP and (in most modern browsers) HEIC photos from your iPhone. The output is always a standard .jpg file because that's the format every portal accepts.

Will my image quality suffer after compression?

The tool reduces quality only as much as needed to hit your target size. For typical photo and document use the visual difference is minimal. If you set a very small target, the tool will also reduce the image dimensions before reducing quality further — documents and IDs usually remain perfectly legible.

Can I batch-compress many photos at once?

The current version handles one photo at a time so you can review the result before downloading. Batch support is on the roadmap.

Is there a file-size limit on the input photo?

Practically, anything your browser can open. The tool has been tested with high-resolution camera photos up to 50 MB. Very large images may take a few seconds to process on older devices — that's normal.

Merge ID front & back into one PDF

Combine multiple photos or PDFs into a single file the portal will accept.
