Everything runs in your browser — your photo never leaves your device. Always verify specs against the latest official notification before final submission.
Before you upload to Passport Seva (Ministry of External Affairs)
- Use a recent photo and save the final file as JPG.
- Confirm the image is exactly 350 x 350 pixels before submitting.
- Keep the file between 10 KB and 100 KB to avoid portal upload errors.
- Use a plain white background with no patterns, shadows or extra border.
Common rejection checks
Most Indian Passport upload failures come from the same small issues: wrong pixel size, wrong file type, a file just above the KB limit, or a crop that leaves too much blank space. This page targets the 350 x 350 px and 10-100 KB specification so you can download a ready-to-upload file and still inspect it before final submission.
If your source image is from an iPhone, convert HEIC to JPG first. If the background is not clean enough, use the background remover before running the final resize.
