Flexible Image Compression for Every Need

Instantly resize and compress your passport photo to precisely 20KB - 50KB for SSC applications. Guaranteed to pass strict Staff Selection Commission guidelines.

Use Case

Essential for aspirants applying for SSC CGL, CHSL, MTS, GD Constable, and JE exams who need a quick, reliable way to fix 'file size too large' errors on the SSC portal.

How It Works

Filing your Staff Selection Commission (SSC) application requires absolute precision, especially when it comes to your photograph. The SSC portal enforces a strict file size limit: your image must be strictly between 20KB and 50KB in JPEG format, with standard dimensions of about 3.5 cm width by 4.5 cm height. If your photo is too large, the upload will fail. If it is over-compressed and blurry, your entire application risks rejection. Our specialized SSC photo compressor perfectly balances this. By using an optimized 40% quality setting and a safe 600-pixel maximum width, we shrink your heavy smartphone photos right into that critical 20KB-50KB sweet spot while keeping your face crystal clear. Furthermore, the entire process runs locally in your browser, so your private data never leaves your device.

What You Get

Optimized images that balance quality and file size for faster uploads.

Frequently Asked Questions

The SSC officially mandates that your uploaded passport photograph must be in JPEG or JPG format, and the file size must be strictly between 20KB and 50KB.

Aside from file size, the SSC strictly prohibits photos where the candidate is wearing spectacles, sunglasses, or caps. Ensure your original photo is taken straight-facing without any accessories before compressing it here.
Yes. The SSC signature upload requires an even smaller file size of 10KB to 20KB. If you upload your signature here, simply lower the 'Max Width' slider to 300px, and it will easily fit the signature requirements.
