Local analysis & measured facts
A correct file size does not make a photo acceptable. This check does not replace the authority’s final review.
Choose a photo to see measured format, byte size and pixel dimensions, alongside the items that need your confirmation.
01 · Know the requirement
The DV entry photo specification uses a 600 × 600 pixel JPEG with a maximum size of 240 kB. This preset checks that exact pixel size and uses a conservative 240,000 byte export limit. It does not confirm registration availability or eligibility.
02 · Choose your next step
Use a real, recent photograph and review all content and composition rules. A correctly sized file does not establish identity, photo age or whether it has been altered. Entry dates and requirements must be checked against the official program instructions for the relevant period.

Requirements can change. The authority’s current instructions and final review take precedence.
Questions about this task
The DV entry preset uses exactly 600 × 600 pixels. Choose the correct route and review all DV instructions before submitting.
No. It prepares a technical photo file and explains limitations. Submit only through the official program website during its published registration period.
No. Photo age and prior use cannot be reliably inferred here. Follow the relevant program’s recency and reuse instructions yourself.
No. Use an authentic photograph that follows the official requirements. This tool offers no generated-face or background-replacement feature.
Bytes and dimensions are only file properties. The photo still needs to meet the full visual and application requirements.
