The common requirement for online PAN applications is a 213 × 213 pixel photo at 300 DPI, saved as a small JPG (often under 30 KB). NSDL and UTIITSL have slightly different rules, so check the portal you are using.
How to use it
- Take a clear photo or scan (good light, plain background).
- Choose it here. The form preset is already selected; edit the numbers if your notice differs.
- Download the file, already named photo.jpg or signature.jpg, and upload it to the portal.
Questions
What is the PAN card photo size?
213 × 213 pixels at 300 DPI, JPG, usually under 30 KB for online uploads. The physical form uses a 3.5 × 2.5 cm photo.
What if my notification gives different numbers?
Edit the width, height, minimum and maximum KB fields. The result updates instantly.
Why is my file slightly bigger than the original?
Some portals reject files below a minimum size. If the compressed photo is too small, the tool adds harmless padding data so it meets the minimum. The picture is unchanged.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The tool runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript, so your files never leave your device. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it keeps working.
