XAT 2027 Photo Size: 200 × 230 Pixels, Under 50 KB
The short answer
The XAT 2027 bulletin asks for a recent passport-size colour photo as a JPG or JPEG, 200 × 230 pixels preferred, on a light background that is preferably white. The file must be within 1 MB, and the bulletin suggests getting it under 50 KB with MS Paint. The tool below makes 200 × 230 pixels under 50 KB.
Copy the numbers from your own exam notice: sizes change from year to year and between exams.
The file is made exactly 200 × 230 pixels and under 50 KB. It is counted as 1 KB = 1,000 bytes, so it fits whether the website counts 1,000 or 1,024.

Frequently asked questions
Is the XAT photo limit 1 MB or 50 KB?
The bulletin says the file should be within 1 MB, and separately suggests a JPEG below 50 KB for the photo when you use MS Paint. The tool keeps yours under 50 KB, which satisfies both.
Can I wear glasses in my XAT photo?
Yes, if there are no reflections and your eyes are clearly visible. Caps, hats and dark glasses are not allowed. Religious headwear is allowed as long as it does not cover your face.
What happens if my XAT photo is unclear?
The bulletin says the application may be rejected, but that you can edit it and upload a clearer photograph or signature before you submit it.
