I think I read somewhere on this forum that electronic version is ok for work permit, but I don’t know if it is true.
This thread.
Note: iirc
For ARC based on marriage, you need a paper version to get it authenticated. [It can be an electronic version. (Thanks @justinram11 )]
Though the OP of the thread said it it for ARC, I think it is for work permit.
I have not confirmed this information with any authorities.
