IBPS PO Photo, Signature & Thumb Impression Resizer 2026
The IBPS PO 2026 application requires four separate scanned document uploads: a photograph, signature, left thumb impression and handwritten declaration. Each has its own image dimensions and file-size limit. Use the tools on this page to prepare your files before starting the application, then complete the separate live-photograph step when the application asks for it.

Always check the latest IBPS notification before submitting your application because requirements can change between recruitment cycles.

The 4 Documents You Need
1. Photograph — 200 × 230 px, 20–50 KB
| Requirement | Specification |
|---|---|
| Format | JPG/JPEG |
| Dimensions | 200 × 230 pixels |
| File size | 20–50 KB |
| Photo type | Recent passport-style colour photograph |
| Background | Light-coloured, preferably white |
Use a recent colour photograph with your face clearly visible. Look straight at the camera with a relaxed expression. Caps, hats and dark glasses are not accepted, while religious headwear is allowed as long as it does not cover the face.
The scanned photograph is separate from the live photograph captured during the application process.
2. Signature — 140 × 60 px, 10–20 KB
| Requirement | Specification |
|---|---|
| Format | JPG/JPEG |
| Dimensions | 140 × 60 pixels |
| File size | 10–20 KB |
| Paper | White paper |
| Ink | Black ink |
Sign on white paper using a black ink pen and keep the signature clear after scanning.
Do not write your signature in CAPITAL LETTERS. Use your normal signature rather than block letters.
Crop unnecessary white space before resizing so that the handwriting remains visible within the final image.
3. Left Thumb Impression — 240 × 240 px, 20–50 KB
| Requirement | Specification |
|---|---|
| Format | JPG/JPEG |
| Dimensions | 240 × 240 pixels |
| File size | 20–50 KB |
| Ink | Black or blue ink |
| Paper | White paper |
Make a clear left thumb impression on white paper and allow the ink to dry before scanning. The final image should not be smudged.
4. Handwritten Declaration — 800 × 400 px, 50–100 KB
| Requirement | Specification |
|---|---|
| Format | JPG/JPEG |
| Dimensions | 800 × 400 pixels |
| File size | 50–100 KB |
| Language | English |
| Ink | Black ink |
Write the declaration yourself in English using black ink on white paper. The declaration must be in your normal handwriting and must not be written in CAPITAL LETTERS.
Use the exact declaration text provided in the current IBPS notification rather than rewriting or shortening it.
Prepare Your Files Before Opening the Application
It is easier to complete the IBPS PO form when your upload files are already prepared.
A simple order is:
- Resize the scanned photograph.
- Prepare and resize your signature.
- Scan and resize the left thumb impression.
- Write and prepare the handwritten declaration.
- Check the final dimensions and KB size of every file.
- Keep the files together before starting registration.
- Complete the live-photograph capture when the application asks for it.
This avoids stopping halfway through the application because one of the required uploads is not ready.
Keep Original and Final Files Separate
Create a folder named IBPS PO Application before you begin.
A simple structure can be:
- Original Photo
- Final Photo
- Original Signature
- Final Signature
- Thumb Impression
- Handwritten Declaration
- Application Form
- Payment Receipt
Keep the original scans untouched. If you later need another size or format, you can prepare a new upload copy without losing the original.
Live Photograph Is Separate From the Scanned Photo
The scanned photograph you prepare for upload is not the same as the live photograph captured during registration.
When the live-photo step appears:
- Follow the instructions shown on the application screen.
- Use suitable lighting.
- Keep your face clearly visible.
- Look directly at the camera.
- Make sure the camera captures your face properly.
Prepare the scanned photograph beforehand, but complete the live-photo capture through the application itself.
RBI Grade B and RBI Assistant use the same pattern — four scanned documents plus a live capture. If you're applying to those too, our RBI Grade B and RBI Assistant photo & signature resizers have each exam's own dimensions and KB ranges.
Common IBPS PO Upload Problems
The Photograph Is Outside the 20–50 KB Range
Adjust the JPEG compression while keeping the image clear. The photograph has its own file-size range, so do not use the same compression setting as the signature.
The Signature Is Above 20 KB
Crop unnecessary blank space first, then reduce the JPEG file size while keeping the handwriting readable.
The Signature Is Written in Capital Letters
IBPS does not accept signatures written in CAPITAL LETTERS. Use your normal running signature instead.
The Thumb Impression Is Smudged
Start again with a clean impression on white paper. A blurred or smudged scan can make the final upload difficult to read.
The Declaration Is the Wrong Size
Changing the file size alone does not correct the dimensions. Prepare the declaration at 800 × 400 pixels and then adjust the JPEG file size to the required range.
The Declaration Text Is Incorrect
Use the exact wording from the current IBPS notification. Do not replace it with a shortened or self-written version.
The Image Looks Blurry After Resizing
Go back to the original scan rather than repeatedly compressing the already-resized file. A clear source produces a better final upload.
Before You Click Submit
Before final submission, check each upload individually:
- Photograph is clear and correctly displayed.
- Signature is readable and not in capital letters.
- Thumb impression is clear and not smudged.
- Handwritten declaration matches the current notification.
- Every file is in JPG/JPEG format.
- Dimensions match the required specifications.
- File sizes fall within the correct ranges.
- Application previews display the documents correctly.
Do not assume that one file-size setting works for every document. Each upload has its own dimensions and KB range.
Keep Your Application Records
After completing the application, save the confirmation page and payment receipt.
Keeping the final uploaded files together with the submitted application details makes it easier to retrieve your records later during the recruitment process.

Does IBPS PO require a live photograph?
Yes. The scanned photograph is prepared and uploaded separately, while the application process also includes a live-photograph capture step.
Can I use the same photograph for another IBPS recruitment?
You can use the same original photograph as a starting point, but check the current notification for the other recruitment before uploading it. Requirements can differ between recruitment cycles.
Does my signature need to match my bank documents?
Your signature should remain consistent with the signature you use during later stages of the recruitment process. Keep your original signature available rather than creating a completely different version for the application.
What if my IBPS PO image is rejected after resizing?
Check all requirements together: format, dimensions, file size and clarity. If the image still does not meet the requirement, go back to the original scan and prepare a fresh upload copy.
Can I prepare IBPS PO documents on mobile?
Yes. You can use the image tools from a mobile browser to crop, resize and prepare your files before uploading them to the IBPS application.
