You are right. The check box for 5 years come up if you choose USA as Nationality and disappears if you choose Canada.
@keys8014 - How did you select 5 years?

Hi,
I recently became canadian citizen. While applying 1-year eVisa, I have the below questions.
Can you please clarify?

1.Countries Visited in Last 10 years (What should I answer for this)
I have visited UAE. Should I include India/Canada too?

2. What are the documents to upload?
a) photo - yes
b) do we need to upload the scanned canadian passport also (bio-metric page alone)?

Thanks.

That's a relief. Thank you so much for replying.

Thank for the reply.

I would like to make a correction, Return ticket is not needed for eVisa. I have travelled to India on eVisa and i wasn't asked about my stay duration or return ticket.

No you dont need to land at the same airport that you mentioned in your eVisa application
Yes return or onward journey is mandatory while travelling on eVisa. Check FAQs on the eVisa website https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/evisa/tvoa.html

The foreigner should have return ticket or onward journey ticket, with sufficient money to spend during his/her stay in India.
Also keep this in mind...

For e-Tourist Visa (01 year / 05 years), the validity would be 365 days / 05 years from the date of grant of ETA with Multiple entries and Maximum stay in India during one Calendar Year should not exceed 180 days.
For e-Tourist Visa (30 days), the validity would be 30 days from the date of your first arrival in India. Double entries will be granted within the e-Visa validity period stamped on your Passport. Your first arrival must be between the date of issue and expiry of ETA.

How many days it took for you to get a visa? And did you get 1 year visa with multiple enteries?

So you are saying, that since return ticket was not asked from you, is it the new rule? that means the FAQs in the official website through which you can apply eVisa is not correct ?

Hi, Did you happen to find an answer for this?

Trying to apply for eVisa to India, but in Canadian passport there is no Given Name. Its only Last name.
But in eVisa application its mandatory to put Given name. What should I do?
