e-Way Bill Portal
EWB Login
Last updated on April 23rd, 2021

On registering on the eWay Bill Portal, the registered businesses and unregistered transporters receive a User ID and are able to set a password for themselves so they can login to the portal. Additionally, unregistered transporters obtain a Transporter ID or TRANS ID. All three credentials are extremely important in order to Generate an EWB. However, it can be a problem if the user forgot the username or TRANS ID or the password. Moreover, if the password is wrongly entered three times continuously, then the EWB portal will freeze. Hence, the user will not be able to take any action on the portal for the next 5 minutes.

Steps to Recover Username on the EWB Portal

  1. Visit the EWB portal

    Visit the e-Way Bill Portal Login page. Click on the “Forgot Username” option.e-Way-Bill-Login-Page

  1. Hey @ViraajAhuja47

    Yes. All the registered persons under GST must register on the portal of e-way bill using their GSTIN. Once GSTIN is entered, the system sends an OTP to the registered mobile number, registered with GST Portal and after authenticating the same, the system enables you to generate your username and password for the e-way bill system.

    After the generation of the username and password of your choice, you may proceed to make entries to generate an e-way bill.

    Hope this helps!

    The validity period of the e-Way Bill is calculated on the basis of ‘approx. distance’ entered while generating the e-Way Bill. For every 100 KM, one day is a validity period for the e-Way Bill as per rule and for part of 100 KM, one more day is added. For example, If approx. distance is 410KMs then the validity period is 4+1 days.
