Before starting with E-Way Bill Compliance — the requirement to generate an electronic document for the movement of goods above a specified value — it helps to have everything ready in advance. Here's the checklist relevant to businesses transporting goods, whether by their own vehicle or through a transporter.
The Checklist
✓ Invoice or delivery challan for the goods being moved
✓ Transporter ID or vehicle number
✓ GSTIN of the supplier and recipient
✓ Correct HSN code and value of goods
✓ Distance and validity period calculation
✓ Awareness of state-specific exemptions, if any
Why Preparation Matters
Missing or incomplete documentation is one of the most common reasons applications get delayed with the e-way bill portal linked to the GST system. Having this list ready before you begin can meaningfully speed up the process.
Once You Have Everything Ready
- Determine if the consignment value crosses the e-way bill threshold
- Generate the e-way bill on the portal before movement begins
- Update vehicle/transporter details if there's a change in transit
- Retain the e-way bill for the entire duration of transport
