India e-Visa 300 KB

Prepare an India e-Visa passport PDF under 300 KB

The India e-Visa instructions list the scanned passport bio page as PDF with a minimum 10 KB and maximum 300 KB size. That is a tight target, so the goal is not just to fit the number but to keep the passport details readable.

What the official instruction says

  • The India e-Visa upload instructions list the scanned bio page of the passport as PDF, minimum 10 KB and maximum 300 KB. Source: India e-Visa document upload instructions.
  • Other business or medical purpose documents can also use a 10 KB to 300 KB PDF rule when applicable.
  • Do not assume every India-related document or every visa route uses the same target.

What must remain readable

  • Passport number, name, nationality, date of birth, issue and expiry dates.
  • The photo area and machine-readable lines.
  • Any stamps, marks, or edges that the destination expects to see.

How PDF Ready helps on Android

  • Choose the India e-Visa size option or select 300 KB in GENERAL.
  • Prepare locally and review the result before clean export.
  • If the result is unreadable, improve the source scan instead of exporting a bad copy.

When to stop and check the source

  • If the official upload page gives a different rule for your document type.
  • If a larger target is allowed for a different India portal or document category.
  • If the scan contains multiple pages or extra material that should not be in the passport bio page file.

Passport bio page preparation checklist

  • Use one clear page for the passport bio page unless the official instruction says otherwise.
  • Avoid extra margins, table backgrounds, or unrelated pages that waste the 300 KB budget.
  • Do not crop away the machine-readable zone or document edges that help identify the page.
  • After Prepare, compare the clean copy with the original before using it in the e-Visa upload flow.
