How to use SBI PO and Clerk Photo, Signature, Thumb and Declaration Resizer
- Pick the document tab (photo, signature and so on) and click Select to add a photo or scan from your phone or computer.
- Drag the crop box so the face or signature fills the frame. Signatures are cleaned and trimmed automatically.
- Click Resize. The file is made at the exact pixel size and inside the KB range, and downloads straight away.
- Repeat for each tab, then upload the files to the application form.
The SBI declaration has extra words
The SBI Probationary Officer advertisement CRPD/PO/2026-27/09 gives the handwritten declaration as: your name, your date of birth, the statement that all the information submitted in the application form is correct, true and valid, that you will present the supporting documents as and when required, and the final sentence "The signature, photograph and left-hand thumb impression is of mine". The IBPS clerk notification's declaration has no date of birth and no final sentence, so do not reuse one for the other. The declaration is uploaded as an image, and a declaration in capital letters is not accepted. Check the exact wording against the advertisement you apply under.
Upload and live photo
The advertisement says the online application will not be registered unless you upload the photo, signature, left-hand thumb impression and handwritten declaration as specified. You also capture and upload a live photograph through your webcam or mobile phone during the registration process, not at the exam. If the face in the photograph, signature, thumb impression or declaration is unclear, the candidature may be rejected, so the advertisement advises editing the application and re-uploading before you submit the form. If you do not have a left-hand thumb, use the right-hand thumb.
Photo and signature guidance
The photograph (4.5 cm by 3.5 cm) must be a recent passport style colour picture against a light-coloured, preferably white background, looking straight at the camera with a relaxed face. If you use flash, make sure there is no red-eye. If you wear glasses make sure there is no reflection. Caps, hats and dark glasses are not acceptable, though religious headwear is allowed if it does not cover the face. Sign with a black ink pen on white paper, yourself, because the signature goes on the call letter and, if the signature on your answer script at the exam does not match it, you will be disqualified. A signature in capital letters is not accepted.
Later stages
SBI may capture photo and thumb impression or IRIS scan at various stages for biometric verification, and any inconsistency leads to rejection. For the preliminary exam, bring two additional photographs, the same as those pasted on the call letter, and keep about 8 copies of the uploaded photograph for later stages.

SBI PO and Junior Associate upload rules
State Bank of India uses the same four scanned documents as most bank recruitment forms: photograph, signature, left thumb impression and a handwritten declaration. The sizes below are as per the SBI detailed advertisements for PO 2025 (CRPD/PO/2025-26/04) and Junior Associates 2025 (CRPD/CR/2025-26/06).
| Document | Dimensions | File size | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
| Photo | 200 × 230 px (preferred), about 4.5 × 3.5 cm | 20 to 50 KB | JPG / JPEG |

Source: SBI detailed advertisements CRPD/PO/2025-26/04 (PO) and CRPD/CR/2025-26/06 (Junior Associates), 2025. Specifications can change between recruitment cycles, so always check the current notification before you apply.
The SBI declaration is different from IBPS
Many candidates reuse an IBPS declaration for SBI, but the SBI text adds your date of birth and one more sentence. Write this in English, in your own handwriting, with black ink on white paper, not in capital letters:
I _______ (Name of the candidate), _______ (Date of Birth) 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. The signature, photograph and left thumb impression is of mine.
The PO advertisement words the last part as "left-hand thumb impression". Copy the exact text from the advertisement you are applying under.
Photo and live photo
Upload a recent colour passport-style photo on a light background, preferably white, without a cap or dark glasses. SBI also captures a live photo during the application. The tool crops to 200 × 230 pixels and keeps the file between 20 and 50 KB.
Signature and thumb
Sign in black ink on white paper, in your normal running handwriting. Capital letters are not accepted. For the left thumb impression, use a black or blue ink pad and press firmly on white paper. The thumb file is made at 240 × 240 pixels with 200 DPI written into it, and the declaration at 800 × 400 pixels at 200 DPI.
Newer SBI notifications
SBI has published 2026 notifications for Junior Associates and PO. We have not checked their upload sections. The sizes have been stable for several years, but compare the table above with the current advertisement before you upload.
