Compress a photo to 512 KB (Oman eVisa)

Photo uploads on the Royal Oman Police eVisa portal at evisa.rop.gov.om need to stay under 512 KB, in JPEG or PNG format. A phone photo straight off the camera roll is several times that and fails, which makes oversized files the most common upload failure on the portal. Compress under 512 KB below, then check the crop: Oman uses 40 x 60 mm proportions with the face filling roughly 70 to 80 percent of the frame.

Which portals need this

Oman eVisa (evisa.rop.gov.om): JPEG or PNG, maximum 512 KB. The photo follows Oman's 40 x 60 mm (2:3) proportions, a taller shape than the standard 35 x 45 photo, taken within the last 6 months on a plain background with no shadows.

The file is only half the battle

A photo with the right file size and dimensions still gets rejected for head size, eye position, background or shadows. Once the file is fixed, run it through the free passport and visa photo checker to measure it against the official spec. The check is free and never edits your photo; you pay $9 only if it passes, accepted or your money back.

Retry in another browser before changing the photo. Government upload forms fail for session reasons more often than they admit.
