How is an e-Way Bill linked with e-Invoicing?
There are two sections to every e-Way Bill.
One of the components comprises information about the invoice, including the invoice number, HSN codes, delivery address, and GSTINs for the recipient and supplier, among other things.
Contrarily, the other portion includes transporter data such as vehicle number, transporter ID, and much more. E-deployment invoicing will also affect the e-Way Bill system.
Instead of registering again, current users of the e-way bill site can log in to the e-invoice portal using the same credentials.
E-way bills will be automatically filled out from the e-invoicing portal once e-invoicing is implemented, as opposed to the present system.
The Parts A and B of the e-way Bill will be automatically filled in after the e-invoice has been successfully validated, provided that some optional details (transporter ID and mode of transport) are amended.
FAQs
Is an e-way Bill required after the e-invoice?
For both intrastate and interstate transportation of products, an E-Way Bill is essential, or an E-Way Bill is required for an E-Invoice. The provider is often the one who develops the E-Way Bill.
However, if the recipient or carrier is registered for GST, they may also produce it.
When is an e-way bill generated after the invoice date?
It is entirely up to the taxpayers to decide whether they wish to generate an E-way bill at the same time as an E-invoice or at a later time using the IRN as a reference. But if an E-invoice isn’t generated where it’s needed to be, the E-Waybill will be ineffective.
Invoices and bills can be generated before the movement of goods, meaning the dates on these documents don’t necessarily have to match up. This is because there’s no rule stating that these have to be generated at the time of the movement of goods.
Is the e-way bill date and invoice date the same?
The e-way Bill’s generation date is known as the e-way bill date. It need not match the date on the invoice.
