Frequently asked questions
When is an eWay bill required?
An e-way bill is generally required for movement of goods with consignment value above ₹50,000 under Rule 138. Exemptions, specified movements below the threshold, and state-specific rules can apply. Value alone cannot determine the requirement for every consignment.
How is eWay bill validity calculated?
For regular cargo, validity is one day for every 200 km or part thereof. For over-dimensional cargo (ODC) or multimodal shipments involving a ship, it is one day for every 20 km. So a 600 km regular trip gets 3 days; validity is counted from when Part-B is first entered.
What is the difference between Part-A and Part-B of an eWay bill?
Part-A describes the consignment, including parties, document, value, and goods details. Part-B records transport details such as the vehicle number or transport document, not live GPS coordinates. Required transport details must be completed for movement, subject to the specific exceptions in the rules.
Can I extend an eWay bill after it expires?
The official API documentation checked on 19 September 2026 permits eligible extension requests within eight hours after expiry as well as eight hours before it. Conditions, permissions, reasons, and outer limits apply. The request must be accepted by the portal; do not treat the window as permission to continue moving goods.

Confirm GSTIN access, service credentials, user permissions, and current portal requirements. As checked on 19 September 2026, the official extension API describes a window from eight hours before to eight hours after expiry, requires an authorised current transporter (or eligible generator), and restricts extension beyond 360 days from original generation. An alert does not establish extension eligibility, and the post-expiry request window is not permission to continue moving goods. Verify the rules for each movement.
