Add Name and Date on Photo for Exam Forms
For many government exams in India, such as SSC, UPSC, IBPS and RRB, you must upload a passport-size photo with your name and date written on it. The date is usually the DOP (Date of Photo). A photo without these details can get your application rejected.
This tool lets you add name and date on photo online in a few taps, with no Photoshop and no app. It adds a clean strip with your name and DOP or DOB, and keeps the file small enough for the upload limit.
Key Features
- Name and date on photo: choose DOP, DOB, or date only.
- Text strip below the photo: your face is never covered. You can also place it over the bottom of the photo if the form asks for that.
- Reduce KB: set 20, 50, 100 or 200 KB and the tool fits the photo automatically.
- Custom file name: save the photo as your own name, for example rahul-kumar.jpg.
- Private: everything runs in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.
Difference Between DOP and DOB
DOP (Date of Photo): the day the photograph was taken. Most exams want a photo that is not older than 3 months.
DOB (Date of Birth): your birth date. Only a few forms ask for it on the photo.
How to Add Name and Date on Photo
- Tap Upload Photo and choose your passport-size photo.
- Type your full name.
- Pick the date (today's date is filled in for you) and choose DOP or DOB.
- Set a Max File Size if your form has a KB limit.
- Type a file name and tap Download Photo.
Photo Requirements for Major Exams
- SSC CGL / CHSL: name and date on the photo, size 20KB to 50KB, JPEG format.
- UPSC: the photo must be recent. Check your notification to see if a name and date are required.
- Railways (RRB): usually asks for name and date of photo.
