Standard Social Security Card Photo Specs
- Pixels: 358×441px (same lineage as the 2nd-gen ID card digital photo)
- Resolution: 300dpi (30.3×37.3mm) or 350dpi (26×32mm)
- Background: white
- File size: 9–20KB at 300dpi; commonly 15–35KB or 30–60KB at 350dpi
Differences by Province/City
KB limits set by local human-resources bureaus differ markedly:
- Shenzhen: 358×441px, 14–20KB (plus a ≥140KB high-res tier)
- Hangzhou: 358×441px, 20–40KB
- Jiangxi / Hubei: 358×441px, 14–20KB
- Shanxi: 358×441px, 10–20KB
- Hunan: 358×441px, 14–40KB; Jiangsu: 10–60KB
⚠️ Common Rejection Reasons
- File size outside your city's window: same 358×441px, but Shenzhen and Hangzhou want completely different KB (our tool outputs exact target KB)
- Non-white, grayish, or shadowed backgrounds
- Head placement not matching GA 461-2004 portrait geometry
- Blurry photos or scans of paper prints
