NTA publishes a file size, not a pixel size
This is the important difference between NEET and every other exam on this site, and it is why so many "NEET photo resizer" tools do the wrong thing. NTA specifies that the photograph must be a JPG between 10 and 200 KB, in colour, on a white background, taken on or after 1 January of the exam year, with your name and the date of the photograph printed on it. It does not specify pixel dimensions.
So a tool that forces your photograph to 413 × 531 is inventing a crop NTA never asked for and throwing away part of the picture for no reason. This preset keeps your photograph's own proportions and only brings the file inside the KB window. The long edge is capped at 1200 pixels, because 200 KB spread across a twelve-megapixel photograph looks far worse than the same 200 KB over a sensibly sized one.
Name and date have to be in the image
NTA requires your name and the date the photograph was taken to be printed on the photograph itself. Not in the filename and not in metadata — visibly in the picture, because admit-card printing and physical verification work from the image alone. Use add name and date to photo first, then come back here to hit the size window, in that order. Resizing first and adding text afterwards leaves the text unreadable.
And NEET wants a second photograph
Alongside the passport photograph, NEET asks for a postcard-size photograph: 4 × 6 inches, white background, also 10 to 200 KB, also with your name and the date on it. That is 1200 × 1800 pixels, and it is a physical print size, so the name has to sit inside the frame rather than on a strip added underneath. The postcard photo maker handles that properly.
The date matters more than people think
A photograph taken before 1 January of the exam year does not meet the requirement, and the date you print on it is what gets checked. Take a fresh one. It is also the photograph on your admit card, which the invigilator compares against your face.
Nothing leaves your phone
Most NEET candidates do this on a phone, and the whole job runs there — no upload, no queue, and no daily cap on how many times you try.
Common questions
Why was my photo rejected when it was under the size limit?
Almost always because it was under the minimum instead. SSC asks for 20–50 KB, so a 12 KB photo fails. Portals rarely say which end you missed. This tool checks both.
Does padding the file to reach the minimum damage the photo?
No. The padding is a JPEG comment segment, which is part of the format and is skipped by every decoder. The pixels are bit-for-bit identical to the unpadded version — only the file size changes.
Which preset should I use for NEET?
NTA — passport photo, for the main upload. NEET also asks for a 4 × 6 inch postcard photograph, which has its own page: the postcard photo maker.
Can I use a PNG or a screenshot?
Drop in anything and you get JPG back, which is what UPSC and NTA require. They refuse PNG and PDF outright at the upload step, so converting first is not optional.
My photo is smaller than the required size — is that a problem?
You are told when it happens. The image is enlarged so the portal accepts it, but it will look soft, and it is the same photo that gets printed on your admit card and checked at the exam centre. A higher-resolution original is worth finding.
Does the exam board also require my name and the date on the photo?
NTA does, for NEET and JEE. Several state boards do too. Use the add name and date tool first, then bring the result back here to hit the size window.
