What size should a K-ETA Under 100KB photo be?

A K-ETA Under 100KB photo should be 700×700 pixels at 300 DPI — a square format on a plain white background.

What is the maximum file size for a K-ETA Under 100KB photo?

The file should be at or under 100 KB. Resize to 700×700 pixels first, then compress to meet the limit — compressing a large image first causes the blocky artifacts that trigger a quality rejection.

How much of the photo should my head fill for a K-ETA Under 100KB?

Your head should take up roughly 70–80% of the total image height. A head that is too small or too large is one of the most common rejection reasons.

Can I take a K-ETA Under 100KB photo at home with my phone?

Yes. Use soft, even lighting with no shadows, stand in front of a plain white background, keep a neutral expression with both eyes open and mouth closed, and face the camera squarely. Check the result against the K-ETA Under 100KB requirements before submitting, since upload portals enforce size and file limits automatically.
