How can I successfully upload a photo for the Thai E-Visa that meets the size requirements?
I’m trying to complete the Thai E-Visa. I’m at the point where I need to upload a photo. “The photo must be under 3MB!”
I am stuck at this part. I’ve tried taking the lowest res photos that I can. Still cannot proceed past this point.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hope all this isn't to confusing.

If you do and get with a mobile phone it's the trouble with technology it advanced too much what I suggest is screenshotting the photo it will reduce the revolution down and show make it about 3mb. For U that's that's what I did to get around it last time

Which visa are you applying for? No need for visa, for stays of less than 90 days.

@Gordon ******
60 days visa exemption plus 30 days extension = 90 days. So no need for a visa for stays of less than 90 days.Gordon *******

Just down the hall at immigration building they take passport photos for you. I try to arrive in Thailand with 4 of them.

What I do is use my IPad to do this part. You have the option to take the photo directly via the form and then automatically gives you the right resolution. Using a PC will not help you here

I have Photoshop and can resize it for you if you want. Feel free to send it to me in my DMs...

Try taking a screenshot.
Then send to yourself as an email.
I used Gmail.
Then choose the lowest resolution smallest data size.
