Australian Visa Photo Size for ImmiAccount

When you apply for an Australian visa online through ImmiAccount, your photo must be a JPEG between 70 KB and 3.5 MB. Modern phone cameras often produce 4–8 MB photos, so the usual problem is a file that's too big to upload. This tool brings it comfortably under the limit while keeping it sharp. Official photo rules (Department of Home Affairs / ImmiAccount): • 35 × 45 mm, preferred resolution 1200 × 1600 px, JPEG • File size between 70 KB and 3.5 MB • Plain neutral or light grey background (not pure white) • Taken within the last 6 months, neutral expression, both eyes open • Each ImmiAccount attachment can be up to 5 MB; photos use the tighter 70 KB–3.5 MB rule This tool compresses your photo to around 1 MB: small and fast to upload, comfortably inside the 70 KB–3.5 MB window, and still sharp enough for identity checks. It changes the file size only; the dimensions stay the same. How to use this page: • Set your photo to 1200 × 1600 px (35 × 45 mm) first if you haven't • Drop it here, and it's compressed and downloads automatically • Upload the result to your ImmiAccount visa application
