Every registered person who causes movement of goods of consignment value exceeding Rs. 50,000/- in relation to supply; or reasons other than supply; or inward supply from unregistered person shall generate e-way bill. It means, the consignor or consignee, as a registered person or a transporter of the goods can generate the e-way bill.

The unregistered transporter can enroll on the common portal and generate the e-way bill for movement of goods for his clients. Any individual can also enroll and generate the e-way bill for movement of goods for his/her own use.

1. Who can generate E-way Bill :

  • Registered Person – E-way bill must be generated when there is a movement of goods of more than Rs 50,000 in value to or from a Registered Person. A Registered person or the transporter may choose to generate and carry e-way bill even if the value of goods is less than Rs 50,000.
  • Unregistered Persons – Unregistered persons are also required to generate e-Way Bill. 
  • Transporter – Transporters carrying goods by road, air, rail, etc. also need to generate e-Way Bill if the supplier has not generated an e-Way Bill.

2. Whether an unregistered person can generate E-way bill?

As mentioned above, an unregistered person is also required to generate E-Bill.

3. Whether transporter can generate E-way bill?

E-Way Bill can be generated on the e-Way Bill Portal. All you need is a Portal login. 

4. Who needs to generate E-way bill in case of purchase from an unregistered person by a registered person?

When a supply is made by an unregistered person to a registered person, the receiver will have to ensure all the compliances are met as if they were the supplier.
