SBI Clerk photo and signature size
SBI Clerk asks for four uploads with four different size rules, and the application form gives you one attempt at each before it starts complaining. Getting all four right before you begin is far less painful than fixing them inside the portal.
What resizing will not fix
The rule that fails most Clerk applications is not a size at all: the declaration must be handwritten in English in running hand, and capital letters are rejected outright. Write it out again rather than trying to fix it in an editor.
- Thumb impression resizer — sets the left thumb impression to 240 x 240 at 20 to 50 KB.
- Handwritten declaration resizer — sets the declaration to 800 x 400 at 50 to 100 KB.
Already tried, and it was refused?
A portal almost never says which rule you broke. Drop the file you tried to upload into the rejection checker and it reports on each rule separately — format, pixel size, the maximum, the minimum and the DPI — so you fix the one that is actually wrong instead of guessing. It reads the file and changes nothing.
Have the notification in front of you?
Then you do not need the figures above at all. Copy the upload instructions straight out of it and paste them into the box on the home page — it reads the pixel sizes, the KB range and the DPI out of the text and sets the tools to exactly what your notification says. That is always right, even when a published figure has gone stale.
Notes on these figures
- If a minimum KB is given, set it too — a clean photograph often compresses below it, and the tool pads the file to reach it without touching the picture.
- Reading a size in centimetres? This guide shows how to convert it to pixels properly.

Questions
What is the SBI Clerk photo size?
200 x 230 pixels, 20 to 50 KB, JPEG, against a light plain background.
What is the SBI Clerk signature size?
140 x 60 pixels, 10 to 20 KB, JPEG. Black or blue ink on plain white paper.
Are the SBI Clerk and SBI PO sizes the same?
Every source checked gives the same four sizes for both. Confirm against your own notification anyway, since the bank sets these per cycle.
What if my thumb impression is smudged?
Take it again. Cleaning or whitening the paper raises contrast but cannot separate a smudge back into a ridge pattern, and a smudged impression is a problem at verification rather than at upload.
