Taxpayers who send or receive goods have to register themselves on the e-Way Bill (EWB) Portal in order to generate an e-Way Bill. The e-Way Bill is generated for the movement of goods in certain cases where the value of the goods is more than INR 50,000, or if there is an inter-state movement of goods, etc. The taxpayer needs to have their GST Number – GSTIN issued in order to register on the EWB portal.

    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.
