Prepare the Microsoft Teams Background
Keep important text and logos away from the middle, where the participant appears, and remember that self-view may mirror the background locally.

Microsoft does not require exactly 1920×1080. It accepts a range from 360×360 to 3840×2160, so this is a practical 16:9 working canvas.
How to resize an image for a Microsoft Teams Background?
- 1
Step 1: Choose a clear source image
Start with an image that has enough detail for a 1920×1080 export. Enlarging a small source cannot restore missing detail.

Step 2: Apply the 1920×1080 preset
Upload the image, select the Microsoft Teams Background preset, and choose Fit to preserve the full image or Fill to crop the canvas.

Step 3: Review and download

What size should a Microsoft Teams Background be?
1920×1080 px working canvas, 16:9. Microsoft supports PNG/JPEG backgrounds from 360×360 through 3840×2160; 1920×1080 is a practical full-HD canvas inside that range.
Does Microsoft Teams require exactly 1920×1080 pixels?
Microsoft does not require exactly 1920×1080. It accepts a range from 360×360 to 3840×2160, so this is a practical 16:9 working canvas.
Can I crop an existing image to 1920×1080?
Yes. Use Fill to crop edge-to-edge or Fit to keep the full source inside the canvas. Review the destination preview because Microsoft Teams can still scale or crop an uploaded image.
Will resizing improve a blurry source?
No. Resizing changes pixel dimensions but cannot recreate detail that is missing from a small or compressed original. Start with the clearest source available.
