Union Public Service Commission — National Defence Academy registration on upsc.gov.in requires a recent passport photograph and signature upload. UPSC NDA recruits young candidates for Army, Navy, and Air Force wings of the National Defence Academy. Open to 12th pass.
Portal tip: After compressing here, open the live UPSC NDA application on upsc.gov.in and use the portal preview before paying the fee — rejected uploads are a common reason candidates miss the closing date.
UPSC NDA photo & signature requirements
On UPSC NDA forms, Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) usually accepts JPEG/JPG only. Target 20–300 KB for the photo and 20–300 KB for the signature. Re-check the active PDF on upsc.gov.in before you pay the fee.
| Document | File size | Dimensions | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
| Passport photo | 20–300 KB | As per notification sample | JPEG / JPG |
| Signature | 20–300 KB | White background, sign in black ink | JPEG / JPG |
Photo tips for UPSC NDA
- UPSC online forms allow a wider KB band (often up to 300 KB) — still compress sensibly; very large files can timeout on upsconline.gov.in during peak hours.
- UPSC sample photos require a white background, frontal view, and no shadows on the face.
- NDA candidates are young — photo must match age proof; UPSC rejects obvious age mismatch at SSB document check.
Signature tips
- Signature must be on white paper, black ink, without borders — UPSC may reject stylised or very faint signatures.
How to resize for UPSC NDA
- Download the specific UPSC examination notice (CDS, NDA, IAS, etc.) for dimension and KB rules.
- Prepare photo at passport size with white background; UPSC is strict about recent photographs.
- Compress within the published KB window — UPSC allows more headroom than SSC but still enforces a maximum.
- Upload during off-peak hours if the portal is slow; save a local copy before submitting Part-I registration.
- Use identical photo files for e-admit card and personality test where applicable.
- If the portal rejects the file, fine-tune using the general Sarkari Photo Resizer.
Common mistakes on UPSC NDA forms
- Wearing uniform or camouflage in defence-exam photos unless the notice permits it.
- Uploading a photo older than the notification's recency rule (often taken within the last 10 days).
- Cropping out the chin or forehead — UPSC sample shows full head-and-shoulders.
- Forgetting to re-upload when UPSC issues a correction window with stricter validation.
