E-Way Bill Compliance comes up with a lot of questions, especially for businesses transporting goods, whether by their own vehicle or through a transporter dealing with it for the first time. Here are clear answers to what we're asked most often.
Is an e-way bill needed for all goods movement?
Only for consignments above the specified value threshold, with some exemptions.
What is the validity of an e-way bill?
Validity depends on distance to be travelled, calculated per the prescribed formula.
Can an e-way bill be cancelled?
Yes, generally within a short window after generation if the movement doesn't take place.
Who is responsible for generating it — buyer or seller?
Responsibility depends on the transaction terms, but typically the supplier initiating the movement.
Still Have Questions?
Every business situation is a little different, and E-Way Bill Compliance is no exception. If your case doesn't fit neatly into the questions above, it's worth getting a second opinion before proceeding.
What You'll Typically Need
- 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
