Saudi eVisa photo size: how to make a 200 × 200 (unit not stated on the current official page) file format not stated on the current official page under 100KB
The two numbers that cause the most upload trouble are 200 × 200 (unit not stated on the current official page) and 5 KB–100 KB. A photo can look correct and still fail if either value is wrong.

Quick answer
- Export the image as a square 200 × 200 (unit not stated on the current official page) file format not stated on the current official page.
- Do not upload HEIC, PNG, PDF, or a large original camera photo.
- Compression should reduce the file below 100KB but keep it above 5KB.
- Check the final saved file, not just the preview inside an editor.
Why 200 × 200 (unit not stated on the current official page) is easy to miss
A phone camera photo may be thousands of pixels wide. Cropping it to a square is only the first step; the export still has to be resized to 200 × 200 (unit not stated on the current official page).
Some photo editors show a square preview but save a larger square file. Before upload, inspect the actual saved file dimensions or use a tool that exports directly to the Saudi eVisa size.
How to think about the 5 KB–100 KB range
If the file is over 100KB, the portal may reject it before any human review. If it is pushed too far below 5KB, the image can become blocky or fail the lower limit.
A clean white background helps compression because the file contains less visual noise. Busy walls, shadows, and high-contrast clothing make the same 200 × 200 (unit not stated on the current official page) image harder to compress cleanly.
Best export checklist
- File extension is .jpg or .file format not stated on the current official page.
- Image size is exactly 200 pixels wide and 200 pixels high.
- File size is between 5 KB–100 KB.
- Face details remain clear after compression.
- No metadata or editing step changed the image back to PNG or HEIC.
How to use source information
Use the Saudi eVisa photo specification as the baseline for 200 × 200 (unit not stated on the current official page) file format not stated on the current official page photos. For Hajj/Nusuk or route-specific upload screens, confirm the latest requirement in the portal before submitting.

Mistakes to avoid
Most photo problems are visible before upload if you check size, background, face position, and file format in order.
A square-looking photo can still fail if it is not exactly 200 × 200 (unit not stated on the current official page).
Compression should keep the file format not stated on the current official page within the required 5 KB–100 KB range for Saudi eVisa.
A white wall with a strong shadow can still be treated as a poor background.
Eyes and facial outline need to be clear; remove spectacles are not specified on the current official page for the eVisa photo.

FAQ
Can I upload a 600x600 photo?
The Saudi eVisa photo specification lists 200 × 200 (unit not stated on the current official page). Resize the final file format not stated on the current official page to that exact listed width and height before upload.
Why is my iPhone photo too large?
iPhone camera images are high-resolution and may use HEIC by default. For Saudi eVisa upload, export a 200 × 200 (unit not stated on the current official page) file format not stated on the current official page and control the final file size.
Is a smaller file always better?
No. The file still needs to be at least 5KB, and overly aggressive compression can damage face detail.
