Common questions

How this tool behaves

What photo size does a PAN application need?

PAN application forms have commonly stated a 3.5 x 2.5 cm photograph, around 413 x 295 pixels, with UTI and NSDL screens applying their own file-size caps — often between 2 KB and 20 KB for the photograph and signature fields.

Do UTI and NSDL have different requirements?

They have differed in the past on file size and on whether a coloured or black-and-white photograph is accepted. Use the specification shown on the portal you are actually applying through rather than a general PAN guide.

Where does the signature go on a PAN form?

Inside the box provided, without the strokes touching or crossing the border. A signature that extends outside the box is a documented rejection reason on physical PAN applications and the same rule is applied to the uploaded image.

Can I use my Aadhaar photo for PAN?

Only if you have the original image file at sufficient resolution. A photograph re-photographed from a printed Aadhaar card, or screenshotted from the mAadhaar app, is normally too low in quality and shows moire patterning.

Does the file leave my device?

No. The image is decoded and re-encoded by your browser. ImgNimble does not receive the source file on this page, and refreshing clears both the input and the generated result.

Will this guarantee my PAN application is accepted?

No. ImgNimble is not affiliated with the Income Tax Department, UTIITSL or Protean/NSDL. Confirm the current specification on the portal you are applying through before submitting.
