Resize a photo to exact centimetres

Forms and print shops often specify a photo size in centimetres— a 3.5×4.5 cm passport photo, a 2×2.5 cm stamp size, a 4×6 inch print, and so on. This tool lets you type the size in cm and the DPI, works out the exact pixel dimensions for you, and resizes your image to match.

To resize an image in cm with DPI, just enter your centimetre size and a DPI value. For most form and passport photos, keep the DPI at 300 — resizing a photo in cm with 300 DPI produces the standard pixel sizes portals expect. If your form gives the size in pixels instead, use the Image Resizer, and to hit a file-size limit afterwards run it through the Image Compressor or resize in KB.

Frequently asked questions

How do I resize an image in cm?
Enter the width and height you need in centimetres and choose the DPI (300 is standard for forms and printing). Upload your photo and the tool resizes it to those exact centimetre dimensions, which you can download as a JPG.
How are centimetres converted to pixels?
Pixels = (cm ÷ 2.54) × DPI. For example, 3.5×4.5 cm at 300 DPI is about 413×531 pixels. The tool shows the pixel size for you and resizes the image accordingly.
What size is a passport photo in cm?
A common passport photo size is 3.5×4.5 cm, used by India, the UK, Schengen countries and many others (the US uses 2×2 inch / 5.08×5.08 cm). Use the passport preset above to set it instantly, or type any custom cm size your form requires.
Which DPI should I choose?
Use 300 DPI for online forms and printing — it gives the crisp, standard pixel dimensions most portals expect. Lower DPI (96) is only for on-screen use.
How do I resize an image in cm at 300 DPI?
Type the width and height in centimetres, set the DPI to 300, then upload your photo. The tool resizes the image in cm with that DPI and shows the exact pixel dimensions, which you can download as a JPG.
What DPI should I use to resize a photo in cm?
Use 300 DPI for printing and online or passport forms — it is the standard most portals expect. Choose 96 DPI only when the image will be viewed on screen and never printed.

Yes — completely free with no sign-up, and the image is resized in your browser, never uploaded to a server.
