What this tool does

An in-browser ID photo resizer that center-crops and resizes any portrait or square photo to the exact pixel dimensions required by official identity documents — without uploading anything to a server. Pick a standard from the preset list: US Passport (2×2 in / 600×600 px at 300 DPI), EU / Schengen Passport (35×45 mm / 413×531 px), China Resident ID 1-inch (25×35 mm / 295×413 px), China Resident ID 2-inch (35×49 mm / 413×579 px), LinkedIn Profile (400×400 px), or generic Work Badge (300×300 px). The tool automatically center-crops the input image to match the target aspect ratio — so a landscape shot becomes a properly framed portrait crop — then scales it to the precise output pixels with high-quality smoothing. Choose JPEG (white background, smaller file) or PNG (transparent background for printed overlays). A quality slider controls JPEG compression. Download the result instantly. No account, no quota, EXIF stripped as a privacy bonus, works offline once the page loads.

Real-world use cases

  • US Green Card and Visa Application Photo

    Drop your phone photo in, pick "US Passport 600×600 px", choose JPEG quality 90, and download. The center-crop centers your face even if you shot in landscape mode. The output meets the 2×2 inch at 300 DPI requirement for DS-160 and similar US forms — no print shop needed.

  • China Resident ID 1-inch and 2-inch Photos

    Chinese government portals often require a strict 1-inch (295×413 px) or 2-inch (413×579 px) crop. Pick the matching preset, upload your portrait, and get the exact pixel dimensions without any guesswork. JPEG with white background is the accepted format for most online submissions.

  • LinkedIn and Social Media Headshot Resizing

    LinkedIn recommends a 400×400 px square profile photo. Drop your professional headshot in, pick "LinkedIn Profile", and the tool center-crops the face region automatically. Export as JPEG quality 90 for a ~30 KB file that looks sharp at every display size LinkedIn uses.

Common pitfalls

  • Starting from a heavily compressed or very small source photo (under 400 px wide). The canvas can only redistribute existing pixels — blurry source means blurry output. Always use the original full-resolution photo.

  • Choosing PNG when submitting to an official government portal. Most government systems expect JPEG with a white background; a PNG with transparency will often be rejected or render with a black background after conversion.

  • Expecting the tool to retouch or straighten a tilted photo. It center-crops and scales only — it does not rotate or correct perspective. Straighten the photo in your phone gallery app before uploading.

Privacy

Photo decoding, center-crop, and re-encoding all happen inside your browser using the Canvas API — no bytes leave your tab. The Network panel stays empty throughout the entire operation. Re-encoding through Canvas also strips all EXIF metadata (GPS location, camera model, timestamps), which is exactly what you want before submitting an ID photo online.
