Tips for a photo that gets accepted
- Stand about half a metre in front of a plain white or off-white wall.
- Face a window for soft, even light without shadows.
- Keep a neutral expression with both eyes open and visible.
- Ask someone else to take it from about 1.2 m away at eye level; selfies distort faces.
Printing passport photos
Download the photo and print it at a photo shop or at home on 4 × 6 in photo paper at "actual size" (100%). Because the file carries 300 DPI, it prints at the exact physical size.
Is it safe to upload my photo?
Your image is never uploaded. ResizeKB processes files inside your own browser using the same technology that draws images on web pages, so the photo never leaves your phone or computer. That matters for documents like passport photos, ID scans and signatures. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and the tool keeps working.
