Bank recruitment exams — IBPS PO and Clerk, SBI PO and Clerk — all need a photograph and a signature (and increasingly a thumb impression and handwritten declaration) uploaded within strict limits. Because IBPS and SBI use near-identical specs, a set prepared correctly once usually works across every bank exam you sit. Here's exactly what they expect.
IBPS & SBI upload specs
| Item | Dimensions | File size | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
| Photograph | 200×230 px | 20–50 KB | JPG |
| Signature | 140×60 px | 10–20 KB | JPG |
| Left thumb impression | 240×240 px | 20–50 KB | JPG |

Frequently asked questions
- What is the photo size for IBPS and SBI exams?
- A JPG of 200×230 pixels, between 20KB and 50KB, on a light background with a neutral expression. IBPS and SBI use the same spec.
- What is the signature size for bank exams?
- 140×60 pixels at 10–20KB as a JPG, signed in black ink on white paper — not in capital letters.
- Can I use the same photo for IBPS PO and SBI PO?
- Yes, normally — the photo and signature specs match, so one correctly prepared set usually passes both. Still verify each exam's current notification.
