Compress a photo to 50 KB
Start with the original portrait rather than a screenshot of a screenshot. This JPEG preset aims for 50 KB while keeping as many useful pixels as the limit allows. It leaves crop and official dimensions to you.

Upload the original portrait, with the crop already checked.
Use the 50 KB JPEG preset once, from that original.
Check eyes, hair edges and the final pixel dimensions.
This sets a byte maximum, not face positioning, background or exam dimensions. The quality floor is JPEG 40 and the longest-side floor is 400 pixels, or the smaller original size; a missed limit is reported.
Files are processed in India, virus-scanned, and deleted automatically after one hour.
Common questions
Does it crop my face?
No. Crop the source first. Compression changes encoding quality and, if needed, dimensions in the same proportion.
Should I compress the result again?
Return to the original for another attempt. Repeated JPEG encoding can create visible blocks and edge damage.
Is 50 KB an official exam requirement?
No. This is a user-chosen target. Check your latest notice for the permitted range, dimensions and format.
