Compress Image to 30KB
Free tool to compress or reduce any JPG, PNG or WebP image to 30KB online. Runs 100% in your browser – your photos are never uploaded. Perfect for exam & job-application forms.
Need a photo or document under 30KB? Drop your image above and imageto10kb tunes the quality — and the resolution if needed — until the file lands at or under exactly 30KB. Nothing is uploaded; all compression happens on your own device.
30 KB is a comfortable target for a passport-sized photo. A 2 MP phone portrait cropped to the standard 413×531 px lands at about 28 KB against a 30 KB limit, with the face still sharp — background texture is what gives way first. This is the band most Indian and Pakistani exam portals aim at, so where a form quotes a range rather than a ceiling, working near the top of it costs you nothing.
Which forms ask for this size
SSC photo (20–50 KB), UPSC photo (20–300 KB), UPSC signature (20–100 KB), IBPS and SBI photo (20–50 KB), FPSC photo (under 30 KB), NEET signature (4–30 KB), RRB signature (30–55 KB) and PPSC photo (10–40 KB).
What to expect at this size
30 KB is a comfortable target for a passport-sized photo. At 413×531 px the result lands near 28 KB and is close to indistinguishable from the original at screen size. This is one of the few limits where you rarely have to compromise at all.
How to compress an image to 30KB
- Open imageto10kb. Drag your photo onto the box above, or click to choose a JPG, PNG or WebP file from your device.
- Set the target to 30 KB, or tap the preset. If your form also states pixel dimensions — 413×531 px is the usual passport crop — tick “Resize to exact pixel dimensions” and enter them, because portals check both.
- Click Compress. The tool searches the quality range for the best result that still fits under 30 KB. On a standard passport crop that lands around 28 KB.
- Download. Check the before/after preview, then download your 30 KB image, ready to upload anywhere.
Frequently asked questions
Is 30KB enough for a good quality photo?
For a passport-sized image, yes. At 413×531 px, 30 KB leaves enough data for clean skin tones and sharp eyes. You would need to look closely, side by side, to spot the difference from the original.
FPSC says under 30KB. Does that include the signature?
No — FPSC lists photo and signature limits separately. The under-30 KB rule applies to the photograph; check the notification for the signature figure, which is usually smaller.
How do I compress an image to 30KB?
Upload your image, set the target to 30 KB, and click Compress. imageto10kb searches for the best quality that stays under 30 KB, then lets you download the result.
Will the quality drop?
For small targets like 30KB some quality loss is unavoidable, but the tool keeps the highest quality that still fits, so it looks as good as 30KB allows.
