Agniveer Photo, Signature & Thumb Resize (Air Force & Navy)
The Air Force (Agniveervayu) and Navy Agniveer forms each set their own file sizes, and both want a photo of you holding a slate with your name and the date. Pick the upload, drop in your scan, and download a JPG inside its range. The Army's Agniveer notification sets no file size, so follow the limit its upload screen shows.
Runs in your browser. Your file is not uploaded and nothing is stored.
Target: 100–200 KB, JPG. Taken within the last month on a light background, holding a black slate with your name and the date in white chalk.

Before you submit
- The slate is part of the photo, not something a tool adds: hold a black slate in front of your chest with your name and the date written in white chalk when the photo is taken.
- Air Force sizes are unusually large: the photo must be at least 100 KB and the signature at least 80 KB. Small scans are padded up to the minimum without changing the picture.
- The Army asks only for a recent photo that matches your face, and a mismatch bars you from every test. Your face is checked against Aadhaar at the exam centre, where your photo, thumb and iris are captured again.
- Resizer sites quote Army specs such as 200 × 230 pixels or 20–50 KB as if they came from the notification. The Army's notification gives no such figures.
- Growing a beard or wearing head gear unlike your photo can get a Navy candidature cancelled, so keep your appearance as it is in the photo.
