Documents
My upload keeps failing
File size, format and photo quality — the three usual causes.
Accepted files
- JPG, PNG, WEBP or PDF
- Up to 10 MB per file
- A clear phone photo is fine — it does not need to be a scan
If it still fails
- Check the extension is genuinely .jpg — renaming a file does not convert it
- Photograph the document flat, in daylight, with all four corners visible
- Avoid flash, which usually blows out the text
- If the file is very large, photograph it again at a lower camera resolution
If a document is too blurry to read, the expert will send it back and ask for a clearer copy rather than guess at what it says.
