Online PAN Card Photo & Signature Resizer (NSDL/UTIITSL)

Applying for a new PAN card or updating corrections on NSDL/UTIITSL portals? These portals require you to upload your photograph and signature in highly specific dimensions and small file sizes (under 50KB or 20KB). Our online resizer prepares your files in seconds.

The resizer crops images to NSDL guidelines (Photo: 3.5x2.5 cm, Signature: 4.5x2.0 cm) and compresses them to the exact KB limits in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the standard photo size for a PAN card application?

The official photo size required for NSDL/UTIITSL PAN applications is 3.5 cm in height by 2.5 cm in width (413 x 295 pixels at 300 DPI).

What is the standard signature size for PAN applications?

The signature scan must be 4.5 cm in width by 2.0 cm in height (531 x 236 pixels at 300 DPI).

What is the maximum file size for PAN card photo and signature?

For NSDL portals, both the photograph and signature files must be under 50 KB in JPG/JPEG format.

Can I upload a PNG signature to the PAN portal?

No. The NSDL and UTIITSL portals only accept files with `.jpg` or `.jpeg` extensions. Our tool automatically converts PNGs to JPG during download.

Should the PAN signature background be white?

Yes. Signatures must be written on plain white paper using black or blue ink, and cropped closely to remove grey shadows.

Is it safe to resize my PAN card documents on this site?

Yes. The editor utilizes HTML5 canvas technology to resize and compress photos offline in your browser. Your sensitive identity scans are never uploaded to our servers.

How do I compress my PAN photo to under 50KB?

Input '50' in the target size box. The tool automatically adjusts compression quality to export a file just below 50 KB.

Does this resizer work on mobile phones?

Yes, it is mobile-responsive and allows taking pictures or selecting files from your gallery for instant resizing.

Why does the PAN portal reject my resized photo?

Ensure you did not upload photo in signature slot, the file extension is strictly `.jpg` (lowercase), and the file size is under the 50 KB threshold.

Can I crop other documents like Aadhaar or voter cards here?

Yes. You can use the custom size input to specify height and width for any document card.
