Resize, crop and compress your photo and signature to the exact SSC CHSL (Combined Higher Secondary Level) specification — free, instant, and 100% processed in your browser. Add your name and date on the photo, whiten the signature background, and download a file the portal accepts. Nothing is ever uploaded to a server.
SSC CHSL's photo is captured live via webcam on the official portal — no upload is accepted there. This fallback lets you prepare a standard 3.5×4.5cm photo for other purposes.
Your source image is smaller than the required output size — the result may look slightly soft. A higher-resolution original is recommended.

SSC CHSL Photo & Signature Size Specification
This specification is sourced from aggregated exam-prep references; cross-check against the current SSC CHSL notification before submitting your application.
Every year thousands of SSC CHSL applications are held back because the photo or signature does not match the size printed in the notification. Staff Selection Commission checks three things on every upload: the pixel dimensions, the file size in KB, and the file format. This freeSSC CHSL photo & signature resizer (10KB–50KB) is pre-set to those exact figures, so you can upload any phone photo or scan and download files the portal will accept on the first try.
The SSC CHSL photo must be 200×240px and 20KB–50KB, while the signature must be 200×80px and 10KB–20KB. Both are uploaded as JPEG files.
How to Resize Your Photo and Signature for SSC CHSL
Take a fresh photo against a plain white or light wall in daylight, or scan your signature signed on clean white paper.
Upload the image in the SSC CHSL resizer above — JPG, PNG and HEIC from iPhone all work.
Drag and zoom the crop box to frame your face or signature. The box is locked to the official SSC CHSL aspect ratio, so the output never looks stretched.
For signatures, switch on the scan enhancer to remove paper shadows and get a pure white background.
Download. The tool compresses the file to land inside the allowed KB range while keeping the exact pixel size, then shows you the final size before you save it.
SSC CHSL Photo Requirements
Use a recent colour photo with your face centred and clearly visible, a plain light background, and no filters or heavy edits. With a 20KB–50KB limit, most phone photos (2–5MB) must be compressed by more than 95% — our compressor searches for the highest quality that still fits, so your face stays sharp.
SSC CHSL Signature Requirements & White Background
Sign in your normal running handwriting — not capital letters — with a black or blue pen on plain white paper, unless the notification says otherwise. Phone scans usually come out grey or shadowed, which looks unclear once shrunk to 200×80px. Our built-insignature background remover evens out the lighting and clamps the paper to a pure white background while keeping the ink dark. As a 10KB–20KB signature resizer, it also keeps the file small enough without breaking the strokes.
Add Name and Date on Photo for SSC CHSL
SSC CHSL does not normally ask for a name and date strip, but some recruitment cycles and document-verification rounds do. If yours does, turn on the stamp toggle in the resizer above or use the dedicated add name and date on photo tool — the white strip is added at the bottom and the final file still meets the SSC CHSL size.
Resizing SSC CHSL Photo and Signature on Mobile
You do not need a computer or a cyber café. Open this page in Chrome or Safari on your phone, tap upload, and pick the photo straight from your gallery or camera. Pinch to zoom inside the crop box, then download — the file saves to your Downloads or Files app, ready to attach in the SSC CHSL application form. Since all processing happens on your phone, it works even on a slow connection once the page has loaded.
Common Reasons SSC CHSL Uploads Get Rejected
File size outside the allowed range — too large, or compressed below the minimum KB.
Wrong pixel dimensions or a stretched image from a basic resize app.
Dark, grey or shadowed background on the photo or signature.
Signature in capital letters, or photo and signature uploaded in each other's slots.
PNG or PDF uploaded where a JPG/JPEG is required.
The specification on this page was last checked against public sources. Always read the latest SSC CHSL notification before final submission, and if the official figures change, set a custom size in the generic photo and signature tools.
SSC CHSL Photo & Signature FAQs
What is the photo size for SSC CHSL?
200×240 pixels, between 20KB and 50KB, in JPEG format with a plain, light background.
What is the signature size for SSC CHSL?
200×80 pixels, between 10KB and 20KB, in JPEG format.
How do I reduce my SSC CHSL photo and signature to the required KB size?
Upload your image to the SSC CHSL resizer on this page. It crops to the exact SSC CHSL dimensions and compresses the file into the 10KB–50KB window, keeping the highest quality that fits.
Do I need to add name and date (DOP) on the SSC CHSL photo?
The SSC CHSL specification we follow does not ask for a name and date printed on the photo, so the stamp is off by default. If your current notification does require it, tick “Add name & date to photo” in the tool above and enter the actual date the photo was taken.
How do I make my SSC CHSL signature background pure white from a mobile camera photo?
Sign on plain white paper, photograph it in good light without shadows and upload it here in Signature mode. Keep “Clean Paper Background (Signature Enhancer)” on — it removes shadows and grey paper tone so the background is pure white, then sizes the file to 200×80px, 10KB–20KB.
Why is my SSC CHSL signature getting rejected or looking blurry?
Usually because the signature was cropped with too much empty space, the background is grey or shadowed, or the file was over-compressed. Crop tightly around the ink, sign with a darker pen and keep the Signature Enhancer on — the SSC CHSL preset then keeps the signature sharp within 10KB–20KB.
How do I reduce my SSC CHSL photo and signature size on mobile without losing quality?
Open this page in your phone’s browser, upload from your gallery or camera and tap Process & Download. The tool picks the highest JPEG quality that still fits 10KB–50KB, and only reduces resolution if it must — no app needed.
Can I upload an iPhone HEIC or PNG image for the SSC CHSL form?
Yes. Upload the HEIC or PNG file directly — it is converted to JPG in your browser and compressed to the SSC CHSL requirement in one step. If your browser cannot read a particular HEIC file, export it as JPEG from the Photos app and try again.
Is it safe to upload my SSC CHSL photo and signature on SarkariPhoto.in?
Yes. It is completely free with no watermark or sign-up, and every step runs inside your browser — your photo and signature are never uploaded to any server.
