Crop image

Cut a photo down to exactly the part you need. Open an image, drag the box over the area to keep, choose a shape such as square, 16:9 or passport photo, or type the width and height in pixels, and download. The crop is done in your browser at full resolution, with no sign-up, no watermark and no upload.

Quick answer

To crop an image, open a photo of up to 60 MB, drag the box over the part to keep or type the width and height in pixels, and download it as JPG, PNG or WebP. Ready shapes include square, 4:3, 3:4, 16:9, 9:16 and a 35 × 45 mm passport photo. The crop is made in your browser at full resolution, so the photo is never uploaded.

Or drag and drop it here. JPG, PNG, WebP and more, up to 60 MB. Your image stays on this device.

How to use the Crop Image

  1. Choose or drop the image you want to crop.
  2. Pick a shape, then drag the box and its corners over the part to keep, or type the size in pixels.
  3. Choose JPG, PNG or WebP and press Crop and download.

Crop to a shape or an exact size

Free cropping lets you draw any rectangle. For social media and documents a fixed shape is easier: square for profile pictures and Instagram posts, 16:9 for YouTube thumbnails and slides, 9:16 for stories and reels, 4:3 and 3:4 for ordinary photos. The width and height boxes show the result in pixels, and you can type a number to set an exact size.

Passport and ID photo shape

The passport shape uses the 35 × 45 mm proportion that many Gulf and international passport, visa and ID photos use. It crops the photo to the right shape; it does not check background colour, head size or lighting, which each authority sets in its own rules. Crop first, then use the resize or compress tool if a portal asks for an exact pixel size or file size, and always check the official requirements before you submit.

Full quality, no upload

The crop uses the original pixels, so nothing is blurred or downscaled. Photos taken on phones are turned the right way up automatically. Choose PNG to keep transparency, JPG for the smallest photos that open everywhere, or WebP for websites. Your image is processed in your browser and never sent to a server.

Tips for a good crop

Keep a little space around faces and important text so nothing important touches the edge. Use the grid lines to place your subject on a third of the frame, which usually looks better than dead centre. If the crop is going to be printed, check that the final size in pixels is large enough: about 300 pixels per inch of printed size gives a sharp result.

Frequently asked questions

How do I crop an image online?

Can I crop to a square or a passport photo?

Yes. Choose Square 1:1 or Passport photo 35 × 45 mm under Shape, then move the box into place.

Does cropping reduce image quality?

No. The tool keeps the original pixels inside the box. Saving as JPG adds light compression; choose PNG for no compression.

Is my photo uploaded?

No. The image is cropped in your browser and never leaves your device.
