Quick answer
For SBI PO and Clerk, the tool presets are: photo 200 x 230 px, 20-50 KB; signature 140 x 60 px, 10-20 KB; left thumb 240 x 240 px, 20-50 KB; handwritten declaration 800 x 400 px, 50-100 KB, at 200 DPI. Confirm against the official notification.
SBI PO and Clerk online forms ask for four images. Each one has a different size, so it is easy to upload the wrong file in the wrong slot. This guide lists the figures our tool uses and how to prepare each image cleanly.
What sizes does SBI PO and Clerk need?
| Document | Dimensions | File size | DPI | Ink / background |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Photo | 200 x 230 px | 20-50 KB | 200 | Light or white background |
| Signature | 140 x 60 px | 10-20 KB | 200 | Black ink |
| Left thumb impression | 240 x 240 px | 20-50 KB | 200 | Black or blue ink |
| Handwritten declaration | 800 x 400 px | 50-100 KB | 200 | Black ink |
These are the values on the SBI PO resizer. They match the values used for IBPS in our data, so if you prepared files for the IBPS RRB form the workflow is the same, though you should still confirm each notice.
How do I prepare the SBI photo?
- Take a front-facing photo on a plain light background with even lighting.
- Avoid caps, dark glasses and shadows.
- Add it to the resizer and crop head and shoulders.
- Set it to 200 x 230 px and 20-50 KB.
- Download and verify the KB size in your file manager.
How do I prepare the SBI signature?
Sign in black ink on clean white paper. Crop tightly and resize to 140 x 60 px within 10-20 KB. Because the window is narrow, avoid paper shadows and texture, which inflate the file.
How do I prepare the left thumb impression?
Ink your left thumb and press it on a white sheet inside a small box. Use black or blue ink. Photograph it straight-on, crop square and resize to 240 x 240 px, 20-50 KB.
- Keep the print sharp: one clean press is better than a smudge.
- Leave margin around the print so nothing is cropped.
- Use the thumb the notification asks for.
How do I prepare the handwritten declaration?
Write the declaration text given in the notification or application page by hand, in English, using black ink on white paper. Scan it flat, crop to the text and resize to 800 x 400 px within 50-100 KB. Check that every word is legible at 100 percent zoom after compression.
How do I avoid uploading the wrong file in the wrong slot?
Rename each file clearly, for example sbi-photo.jpg, sbi-signature.jpg, sbi-thumb.jpg and sbi-declaration.jpg. Many rejections come from swapped slots rather than bad files. Also see our checklist of documents before you start.
| Slot | Typical mismatch | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Photo | Signature file uploaded | Face visible, about 200 x 230 px |
| Signature | Photo uploaded | Wide, short image |
| Thumb | Declaration uploaded | Square image |
| Declaration | Thumb uploaded | Wide text image, 50-100 KB |
What if the file is refused?
Read the error, then see file size too large errors or invalid file format errors. Our tools are free, run in your browser, do not upload your files and need no sign-up. Previews are free; watermark-free downloads are paid.
