You can use a byte[] on your model and a HttpPostedFileBase on your view model. See this example : Model : public class MyViewModel { [Required] public HttpPostedFileBase File { get; set; } } Controller : public class HomeController: Controller { public ActionResult Index() { var model = new MyViewModel(); return View(model); } [HttpPost] public ActionResult Index(MyViewModel model) { if (!ModelState.IsValid) { return View(model); } byte[] uploadedFile = new byte[model.File.InputStream.Length]; model.File.InputStream.Read(uploadedFile 0 uploadedFile.Length); // now you could pass the byte array to your model and store wherever // you intended to store it return Content(Thanks for uploading the file); } } View : @model MyViewModel @using (Html.BeginForm(null null FormMethod.Post new { enctype = multipart/form-data })) { @Html.LabelFor(x => x.File) @Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.File new { type = file }) @Html.ValidationMessageFor(x => x.File) Upload } Reference : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15106190/uploading-files-into-database-with-asp-net-mvc
