Common UP Police upload errors, and the fix
Photo over 50 KB
UP Police refuses a photo above 50 KB (the allowed range is 20–50 KB). Phone photos are usually 2–5 MB, so compress it to around 35 KB rather than right at the limit.
Wrong photo size or shape
The UP Police photo should be 3.5 × 4.5 cm (276 × 354 px at 200 DPI). A photo in a different shape gets squashed or refused, so crop it to that shape before shrinking; the tool above does both.
Signature over 20 KB
UP Police refuses a signature above 20 KB (the allowed range is 5–20 KB). Phone photos are usually 2–5 MB, so compress it to around 12 KB rather than right at the limit.
Signature under 5 KB
A clean signature on white paper is often only a few KB, below the 5 KB minimum for UP Police. FitMyKB raises the quality first and then adds invisible padding, so the file reaches 5 KB without changing how it looks.
Wrong signature size or shape
The UP Police signature should be 3.5 × 1.5 cm (276 × 118 px at 200 DPI). A signature in a different shape gets squashed or refused, so crop it to that shape before shrinking; the tool above does both.
Background isn't plain white
UP Police wants a plain white or light background. A coloured wall, curtain or room behind you can get the photo rejected at verification, weeks later. Turn on White background and it's replaced for you.
Not a real JPG
The UP Police portal takes JPG files. iPhone photos are HEIC and screenshots are PNG, and renaming a file to .jpg doesn't convert it. Drop the original into the tool: it always saves a genuine JPG.

UP Police asks for the photo as a JPG: 3.5 × 4.5 cm at 200 DPI · 20–50 KB · white background.
UP Police signature size
UP Police asks for the signature as a JPG: 3.5 × 1.5 cm at 200 DPI · 5–20 KB. Black ink, running hand.
Checklist for your UP Police application
Prepare 2 files: Photo (3.5 × 4.5 cm at 200 DPI · 20–50 KB · white background); Signature (3.5 × 1.5 cm at 200 DPI · 5–20 KB). Apply only on the official website, uppbpb.gov.in.
Tips for UP Police
UP Police recruitment insists on black ink for the signature, in running handwriting, and a face that fills most of the photo with both ears visible. The minimum signature size is small (5 KB), but the maximum of 20 KB is strict.
