Compress Image to 20 KB Online Free
Reduce any photo to exactly 20 KB without losing visible quality. Built for Indian government forms, exam applications, and KYC uploads — 100% in your browser.
Many Indian government portals — especially SSC CGL, SSC CHSL, IBPS, RRB and several state-level recruitment sites — accept photographs only between 20 KB and 50 KB. If your phone’s camera produced a 2 MB selfie, the upload will simply fail. This page compresses your photo to exactly 20 KB in your browser, so you can upload it without re-shooting or paying anyone.
Need a different size? Compress to 50 KB, 100 KB, or 200 KB instead. For exam-specific presets, try our SSC / Exam Photo Resizer.
