Thanks for informative video Just few queries: 1. Does online ETA confirmation over mail and Arrival card confirmation over mail will serve the purpose or we need to get some hard form of document from airport ?

Soft copies will work but we took the email print out of ETA only. Arrival card is just to post information on website its nothing to carry.
