What photo size does the tool produce?

The tool produces a personal photo to the dimensions set in the tool: 200 × 200 pixels, as a JPG, 1 MB at most, on a white background.

  • Dimensions: 200 × 200 px, square
  • Output file: JPG
  • Size: 1 MB maximum
  • Background: plain white, without strong shadows
  • Face straight on, sharp and well lit, in proper attire

These values were checked on 17 September 2026. Requirements can change: check the ones shown on the portal when you upload. When they change, the tool is updated.

How to resize your photo for Nusuk

Four steps, nothing to install:

  1. Choose a photo or take one with your phone.
  2. Fit your whole head inside the oval: eyes on the line, chin on the bottom line.
  3. Turn on “Make the background white” if your background is plain but not quite white.
  4. Click “Prepare my photo”, check the preview, then download the JPG file.

The crop is always square and the photo comes out at exactly 200 × 200 px. Compression is automatic: at that size the file usually weighs a few dozen KB, well under the 1 MB limit.

How to prepare your passport for Nusuk

The tool prepares the passport data page — the one with your photo — as a JPG, within 800 × 400 pixels and 1 MB.

  • The whole page is visible, with no edge cut off
  • The MRZ is readable: the two lines of characters at the bottom of the page
  • No glare or blur: take the photo in daylight, without flash
  • The passport lies flat and is photographed straight on

The tool finds the edges of the passport and corrects the perspective of a photo taken at an angle. You can always move the four corners by hand. The image is then scaled down without distortion to fit within 800 × 400 px.

Convert a PDF or PNG to the Nusuk format

A scanned passport often comes as a PDF. Drop the file into the Passport card: each page shows as a thumbnail, you pick the passport page and it is converted to JPG on your device. PNG and WEBP images are converted the same way.

On iPhone, a HEIC photo picked from the photo library is usually converted to JPG by the phone when you select it.

Why does Nusuk reject a photo or passport?

Most rejections come down to a few simple causes:

  • File too heavy or too large, such as a raw phone photo of several MB
  • Format not accepted: HEIC, or a PDF instead of an image
  • Blurry or dark photo, or shadows on the face
  • Busy or coloured background instead of white
  • Passport cut off, unreadable MRZ or glare on the page

The tool fixes the format, dimensions and file size. It cannot make a blurry photo sharp: in that case, take the photo again. The Nusuk portal also runs its own checks, so a file prepared here is not guaranteed to be accepted.

Umrah agencies: prepare your pilgrims' Nusuk documents

When an agency builds its pilgrims' Nusuk files, the upload step often stalls on documents: photos and passports sent over WhatsApp or email, too heavy, badly framed or as PDFs. The tool gets them into shape in seconds, with no account and no usage limit.

You can also share this page's link with your pilgrims so they prepare their own files. Since nothing is sent or stored, no client passport goes through a third-party service.

To then track your pilgrims' files, documents and payments in one place, OmraDesk brings everything together in one piece of software.

Your documents stay on your device

Processing happens directly in your browser: the photo and passport are not sent to any server, neither OmraDesk's nor a third party's. Nothing is kept: closing the page clears everything.

To read a PDF and detect the passport, the browser downloads the programs that do the processing from omradesk.com. Those are programs coming down to your device, not your files going up — you can check it in the Network tab of your browser.

Frequently asked questions

What size is the photo prepared by the tool?

200 × 200 pixels, JPG, 1 MB maximum, on a white background: these are the dimensions set in the tool. It crops the photo to a square, scales it to exactly that size and compresses it automatically. Check the requirements shown on the portal when you upload.

How do I resize a photo to 200×200 for Nusuk?

Add the photo to the tool, place your head inside the oval using the zoom, then click “Prepare my photo”. The downloaded file is exactly 200 × 200 px, as a JPG, with no software to install.

How do I get a white background on a Nusuk photo?

Turn on “Make the background white”. The tool reads the wall colour along the edges of the photo and replaces it with white, without AI. It works well on a plain background (light wall, sheet); if the background is busy, the tool says so instead of producing a bad cut-out. Retake the photo against a plain wall.

In what format does the tool prepare the passport?

The data page as a JPG, 800 × 400 pixels at most and 1 MB at most, following the dimensions set in the tool. The whole page and the MRZ must stay readable. The tool straightens the page, scales it down without distortion and compresses it.

How do I convert a PDF to JPG for Nusuk?

Drop the PDF into the Passport card and pick the page with the passport: it is converted to a JPG in the right format, on your device. A password-protected PDF cannot be read; export the page as an image instead.

Why does Nusuk reject my photo?

The most common causes: file too heavy, dimensions that do not match the ones requested, HEIC format, background that is not white, blurry or poorly lit photo. The first four can usually be fixed with the tool; a blurry or dark photo has to be retaken.

Can an agency use the tool for its pilgrims' documents?

Yes, free and without limits: process each photo and passport, or share the page link with your pilgrims. Nothing is sent or stored, and no client document goes through a server.

Is my passport sent to or stored by OmraDesk?

No. The passport is processed in your browser and is not sent to any server. OmraDesk never sees it and does not store it; it is cleared from your device's memory when you close the page.

Does the tool use artificial intelligence?

No. Cropping, the white background and passport edge detection rely on classic image processing — colour analysis, edge detection, perspective correction — run locally in your browser.

Can I use the tool on an iPhone?

Yes, on iPhone and Android alike, in Safari or Chrome. You can pick an image from the photo library or take the photo straight from the tool, then download the prepared file to your phone.
