About JEE Main Photo Size
The JEE Main application asks for a recent colour passport-size photo on a white background, with the face covering about 80% of the photo, as a JPG of 10–200 KB. Add a photo and the tool frames, cleans and saves it within those limits.
The preset also works for NEET and CUET. Choose GATE, IBPS or another exam from the list if you need it. Nothing leaves your browser.
Good for
- JEE Main application forms
- NEET and CUET (NTA) forms
- Other exam forms with 10–200 KB photos
Tip: Wear clothes that contrast with the white background, and take the photo in daylight facing a window.
Frequently asked questions
What photo does JEE Main ask for?
A recent colour passport-size photo (about 3.5 × 4.5 cm) on a white background, with the face covering about 80% of the photo and both ears visible, as a JPG of 10 KB to 200 KB. Check the information bulletin of your year — the values can change.
Is the postcard-size photo also needed?
Some NTA exams also ask for a 4 × 6 inch postcard-size photo. Choose “NEET / NTA postcard size” in the document list — the same photo is framed for 4 × 6 inches and saved within the KB limit.
How is my face positioned?
The face is found automatically and the photo is framed so your head (chin to crown) has the size the rules ask for, with the right space above it. Drag the photo or use the zoom slider to fine-tune — the guide lines show where the crown and chin should be.
Can I change the background?
Yes. The person is separated from the background in your browser, and the background is replaced with white, off-white, light grey, blue, red or any colour. Choose “Keep the photo’s own” if your wall is already plain.
Is my photo uploaded?
No. Face detection, background replacement and everything else run in your browser — your photo never leaves your device.
Can I use the same photo for CUET?
Yes. CUET asks for the same kind of passport-size photo, so the result works for that application too.
