Last updated: March 2026 - this page contains important limitations regarding the use of the pan card resizer tool.
Independent utility - not affiliated
PanCardResizer.cc is an independent, private tool. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to:

βοΈ 1. No warranty & use at your own risk
The pan card photo resize tool is provided on an βas isβ and βas availableβ basis. While we aim for accuracy (213x213 pixels @300 DPI for photo, 400x200 @600 DPI for signature), we do not warrant that the output images will be accepted by any specific portal, authority, or application. Image acceptance depends on many factors beyond our control (file size, background, clarity, portal updates). You assume all risk associated with using the resized images.
π§ββοΈ 2. Not professional or legal advice
The information provided on this site, including dimensions, DPI recommendations, and FAQ answers, is for general informational purposes only. It does not constitute legal, financial, or professional advice. Always refer to the official pan card application guidelines or consult with a qualified professional before submitting any document.
π 3. Third-party names & links
Any mention of NSDL, UTIITSL, Protean, or other organisations is purely for identification purposes - to indicate which portals our pan card resizer aims to be compatible with. We do not imply any partnership or endorsement. Links to external sites are provided for convenience; we have no control over their content and are not responsible for any damages or issues arising from their use.
π« 4. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, pancardresizer.cc, its owners, developers, and contributors shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising out of or in any way connected with your use of the pan card photo resize tool, including but not limited to:
- Rejection of a PAN application or any other government form.
- Loss of data, image corruption, or inaccurate dimensions due to browser/device quirks.
- Delays or inability to access the tool.
ποΈ 5. File size & compression
Our tool attempts to keep the photo within 20-50KB and signature within 10-20KB as commonly suggested. However, the actual file size may vary depending on the original image complexity, colour depth, and your browser's JPEG implementation. We recommend checking the final file size before uploading to official portals.
π 6. DPI & pixel dimensions
The tool sets the image DPI metadata to 300 (photo) and 600 (signature) as per standard PAN specifications. However, some browsers or operating systems may ignore or alter DPI metadata. The pixel dimensions (213x213 and 400x200) are always enforced. It is your responsibility to verify that the uploaded image meets the receiving portal's requirements.
π 7. Official specifications may change
Government agencies (NSDL, UTIITSL, Income Tax Department) occasionally update their image requirements. While we try to keep up, we cannot guarantee that the tool reflects the latest specifications. Always cross-check with the official application portal before final submission.
β οΈ 8. Browser & device limitations
The pan card resize tool relies on modern browser features (HTML5 Canvas, File API). Very old browsers or unusual devices may not support these features. We are not responsible for any malfunction or incorrect resizing caused by your browser, device, or internet connection.
π§βπ» 9. User responsibility
By using this tool, you agree that you are solely responsible for:
- Ensuring your images (photo, signature) comply with all applicable laws and guidelines.
- Verifying the output before official submission.
- Maintaining backups of your original images - we do not store them.
π 10. Changes to this disclaimer
We may update this disclaimer from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the latest revision. Your continued use of the pan card resizer after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised disclaimer.
π In short:
This tool is a helpful utility, not an official service. Double-check your final images. We are not responsible if your PAN application is delayed or rejected. If you are unsure, please consult the official NSDL/UTIITSL portals.
If you have any questions about this disclaimer, feel free to contact us.
