Why It Helps

You do not need an image editor or a converter. Crop, resize and compress in the browser, then upload the finished file.

Limitations

The form may also ask for passport pages and supporting documents. This tool only handles the photo.

Before You Upload

  • Open the official Immigration New Zealand page and compare the current rule with the preset.
  • Confirm the file is JPEG and inside the Up to 5 MB range.
  • Check the face is centred, the background is plain and no hair covers the eyes.
  • Keep a copy of the finished file in case the portal asks for it again.
