Resize Image to 100 KB: Free Online Compressor

Some forms allow up to 100 KB, enough for a clear photo or a readable scanned document. The India Post GDS photo (30 to 100 KB), the CTET photo (10 to 100 KB), the JEE Main and NEET UG signature (10 to 100 KB) and the Saudi Arabia e-visa photo (5 to 100 KB) all use it. This page starts the compressor at 100 KB.

Your photo stays on your device. Face detection and background removal also run on your device.

At 100 KB the tool usually keeps the original pixel size and only lowers JPEG quality a little, so faces and text stay sharp. Images wider than 1600 pixels are scaled down to 1600 first.

How to compress an image to 100 KB

  1. Target file size is already set to 100 KB. Change it if your form gives a different limit.
  2. Pick the photo or scanned document.
  3. Check that the file size line shows โœ…, then tap Download.

If the form also gives a pixel size, use its own page instead so the shape is right too, for example the SSC photo or IBPS signature tools, or browse all exam photo and signature sizes.
