Recent passport-size photograph, in colour or black & white, on a white background; 80% of the image must be the candidate's face (visible including ears, without a mask). Taken after 01 January 2026 (Step 2(b); the bulletin's checklist note says 'taken on/after 01 January 2026'). The bulletin states no pixel, cm or dpi values. Spectacles only if regularly used; Polaroid and computer-generated photographs are not acceptable; the photograph need not be attested. The same photograph is pasted on the Attendance Sheet at the examination centre.
