CUET UG Photo & Signature Resize
NTA's CUET UG form takes a scanned passport-size photo of 10–200 KB and a signature of 10–50 KB, both JPG, on top of a live photo taken inside the form. Pick one, drop in your scan, and download a file inside the limit. These are the 2026 figures: the 2027 bulletin was not out when this page was checked.
Runs in your browser. Your file is not uploaded and nothing is stored.
Target: 10–200 KB, JPG. Colour photo on a white background, face (no mask, ears visible) filling about 80% of it.

Before you submit
- In the 2026 cycle the photograph could not be changed in the correction window, while the signature could. Get the photo right before you submit.
- NTA takes your photograph from UIDAI through Aadhaar authentication, and in 2026 candidates whose live photo did not match had to upload an attested certificate. If your Aadhaar photo is old, update it before you apply.
- NTA sets no pixel or centimetre size, so this page keeps your photo's shape. Crop it first so your face fills about 80% of the frame.
- A signature limit of 4–30 KB still quoted online is from the 2024 bulletin and earlier. Carry one passport-size photo, the same as the uploaded one, to the exam centre.

Yes. In 2026 you take a live photo inside the form and also upload a recent scanned passport-size photo.
It varies, so the tool aims about 3% under the upper limit and, where there is a lower limit, just above it in 1,024-byte KB. The file is accepted either way.
