## 解决方案

1. ```
   Apply for a regular paper visa (sticker visa) at the Indian consulate with jurisdiction over your residence, submitting your ETD and supporting documents.
   ```
2. ```
   Obtain a standard biometric passport (e.g., renew your passport) before applying for India e-Visa.
   ```

## 无效尝试

- **Trying to apply with an ETD by selecting 'Other Passport' in the e-Visa portal** — The e-Visa portal rejects any passport not matching the biometric standard, and ETDs are not biometrically readable, causing an instant rejection. (95% 失败率)
- **Contacting the Indian embassy to request manual e-Visa approval with an ETD** — Embassies have no discretion to override the e-Visa system's passport-type restriction; the system is automated and centralized. (85% 失败率)
