IBPS PO Photo & Signature Size 2026

Photograph

• Official: “Dimensions 200 x 230 pixels (preferred)” and “Size of file should be between 20kb–50 kb”.
• Printed size is written “(4.5cm × 3.5cm)” without saying which is width; read here as 3.5 cm wide × 4.5 cm high (portrait), and 200 px wide × 230 px high.
• “Photograph must be a recent passport style colour picture … taken against a light-coloured, preferably white, background.”
• Look straight at the camera with a relaxed face; no squinting or harsh shadows; no red-eye; if you wear glasses, no reflections and eyes clearly visible.
• “Caps, hats and dark glasses are not acceptable. Religious headwear is allowed but it must not cover your face.”
• Format comes from the general scanning rule: “The image file should be JPG or JPEG format.”
• Keep copies of the same photo for later stages and do not change your appearance until selection is over — failure to produce the same photograph or doubt about identity can lead to disqualification.

Live photograph (webcam / mobile)

• Required in addition to the uploaded photo: “Capture Photo” uses the webcam, “Click here to Scan” lets you use your phone via QR code. No pixel or KB limit is given — it is captured in the form.
• Do: light-coloured, preferably white background with adequate light; look straight at the camera; passport-size framing.
• Don't: small photo; coloured glasses / sunglasses / cap; shadow on face, not facing the camera, distorted face, mask, blurred image; dark or improper background.

Signature

• Official: “Dimensions 140 x 60 pixels (preferred)” and “Size of file should be between 10kb – 20kb”. No cm/DPI stated.
• “The applicant has to sign on white paper with Black Ink pen.”
• Signature in CAPITAL LETTERS is NOT accepted.
• Must be the candidate's own signature. If the signature on the call letter / attendance sheet at the exam does not match the uploaded one, the candidate is disqualified.

Left thumb impression

• Official: “240 x 240 pixels in 200 DPI (Preferred for required quality) i.e. 3 cm * 3 cm (Width * Height)”, “File Size: 20 KB – 50 KB”.
• Put the left thumb impression on white paper with black or blue ink.
• No left thumb → right thumb. Both thumbs missing → a left-hand finger starting from the forefinger, then a right-hand finger, then the left toe. In such cases write in the uploaded document which finger / hand / toe was used.

Hand-written declaration

• Declaration text: “I, __________ (Name of the candidate), hereby declare that all the information submitted by me in the application form is correct, true and valid. I will present the supporting documents as and when required.”
• Write it in English, in your own handwriting, clearly on white paper with black ink. Text must NOT be in CAPITAL LETTERS; written by someone else or in another language = application invalid.
• Candidates who cannot write may get the text typed and put their left thumb impression below it.
• If the handwriting is later found dissimilar on expert analysis, candidature is cancelled.
