One upload, two deliveries: the pixel-exact digital file and a 300 dpi print-ready sheet.
What each line means
Printed size — print at exactly 33 × 48 mm. A few millimetres off and most offices hand the form back before anything else is checked.
Digital size — the digital file must measure 390 × 567 px. Anything smaller gets refused by many online systems before a person sees it.
Background — a plain Blue background, with no shadows or gradients. A wall lit unevenly is the fastest route to a refusal.
Resolution — 300 dpi keeps a face sharp in print. Below that, features soften and agencies ask for a retake.

How to take a CET Exam Photo with your phone
File requirements
CET-4 and CET-6 registration takes a digital photo: a 144×192 px JPG between 20 and 100 KB on a plain blue background. The upload is checked by machine, so the file's weight and pixel count matter as much as the face; phone shots straight from the camera run several megabytes and fail on size alone.
Blue background
The registration standard fixes a flat blue behind the head; self-shot walls are rarely flat or evenly lit, which is the second failure mode. Replacing the background corrects this.
Appearance
Bareheaded, eyebrows and ears visible where the hairstyle allows, no heavy makeup and no thick-framed glasses. Face requirements: frontal light, neutral expression, eyes on the lens.
Output specifications
The tool crops to exactly 144×192 px, compresses into the 20-100 KB band and replaces the background with the standard blue. This page carries both specifications: the 33×48 mm print size and the 144×192 px upload file.
Why CET Exam Photo gets rejected
File size and dimensions
Outside the 20-100 KB band, or anything other than 144×192 px: the registration system checks both before a human sees the photo. Compress and crop before uploading.
Background problems
Uneven walls, objects or shadows behind the head. The flat standard blue is required by the spec.
Appearance problems
Heavy makeup, thick-framed glasses, hair over the eyebrows. The registration notice names them, and they stall the upload review.

Photo tips
Frequently asked questions
What size is a CET Exam Photo?
The standard size is 33 × 48 mm (390 × 567 px at 300 DPI). The tool crops and scales your photo to exact requirements automatically.
Can I smile in the photo?
Requirements call for: a natural expression. When in doubt, keep a neutral face with both eyes open.
How recent must the photo be?
Old photos are a common rejection reason.
Is my photo private?
Yes. Uploaded photos are encrypted in transit and automatically deleted within 24 hours. We never share or resell uploads.
What are the CET photo requirements?
144×192 px JPG between 20 and 100 KB with a blue background. The tool is preset to that spec: upload a photo and get a compliant registration file.
Why does my CET photo keep failing to upload?
Usually the file sits outside the 20-100 KB band, or the dimensions are wrong. The registration system checks both; this tool compresses under the limit and crops to exactly 144×192 px.
Can I take the photo myself?
Yes. Shoot against any clear background in even light; the tool replaces the background with the standard blue and cuts the exact pixel size.
