An issued eVisa still meets the border process
The official terms say the eVisa is valid for entry through all airports and/or seaports, but entry remains subject to border conditions and the discretion of an Immigration Officer.
Travelers must arrive with the same passport used to apply, carry a copy of the eVisa on first arrival and provide biometric details when required.
