NIFT Photo & Signature Size
The NIFT (National Institute of Fashion Technology) portal requires a photo of 413×531 px (max 100 KB, JPEG) and a signature of 800×200 px (max 50 KB). Use the three steps below to crop, resize, and compress both — entirely in your browser, nothing is uploaded.
Requirements change each exam cycle. Always verify from the official nift.ac.in notification before submitting.
