Frequently asked questions — CAT

What is the photo size for CAT?

The official CAT photo size is 1200×1200 pixels, between 10KB and 80KB, in JPG/JPEG format.

What is the signature size for CAT?

The signature file size for CAT should be under 80KB. Check the official notification for exact pixel dimensions.

Can I use a photo clicked on my phone for CAT?

Yes. Mobile photos typically exceed the required file size and dimensions. Use the resize tool above — it automatically resizes and compresses your phone photo to the exact requirements.

Does the tool upload my photo to a server?

No. All processing happens in your browser using the Canvas API. Your photo never leaves your device. No login required, no file storage.

My CAT photo upload is rejected even after resizing. What should I do?

Some portals also check for white background and face visibility — these cannot be auto-verified. Ensure your photo has a plain white background and your face is clearly visible, centered, and not blurry.
