TNEA Certificate Upload Requirement

tneaonline.org requires every supporting certificate (marksheets, Community Certificate, Nativity Certificate, Transfer Certificate) to be between 150 KB and 1 MB, in JPG, JPEG, or PDF format. Your photo and signature are a separate, much smaller requirement (20KB-50KB) - use our TNEA Photo & Signature Resizer for those instead.

Complete Guide to TNEA Certificate Upload

Frequently Asked Questions

Common doubts about TNEA Document Uploads

What is the TNEA Document Compressor?
This tool helps TNEA (Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions) applicants resize and compress their certificate scans - marksheets, Community Certificate, Nativity Certificate, Transfer Certificate - to fit within tneaonline.org's 150KB to 1MB file size window, in JPG or PDF format.
What file size does TNEA require for certificates?
TNEA certificate uploads must be between 150 KB and 1 MB each. This is different from your photo and signature, which must be 20 KB to 50 KB - use our separate TNEA Photo & Signature Resizer for those.
Does TNEA accept JPG or does it require PDF?
TNEA accepts certificates in JPG, JPEG, or PDF format - unlike some other Tamil Nadu portals (like TANCET) that require PDF only. This tool lets you download either format, so you can pick whichever tneaonline.org's upload field expects for that document.
Do I need to upload a Nativity Certificate for TNEA?
Only if you are a Tamil Nadu native who studied your qualifying examination (Class 11/12) in a school outside Tamil Nadu. Students who studied entirely within Tamil Nadu generally do not need to upload a separate Nativity Certificate.
Is the Community Certificate mandatory for everyone?
No. Community Certificate upload is required for all reservation categories (BC, BCM, MBC, SC, SCA, ST) but not for General/OC category candidates.
Is my data secure when using this tool?
Yes, 100% secure. Everything happens directly inside your web browser (client-side processing). Your marksheets and certificates never leave your device.
Is this the same as a TNEA Certificate Compressor or File Compressor?

Yes. "TNEA Document Compressor," "TNEA Certificate Compressor," and "TNEA File Compressor" all refer to this same free tool.
