How to Modify eWay Bill – Vehicle Number Updation in Part-B

The Vehicle Number entry on an eway bill is optional when generating part-A of the e-way bill. However, an e-way bill must have a vehicle number to be valid for the transportation of goods.

You can update the vehicle number on the document using the e-way bill portal when the e-way bill is within its validity period in the following situations:

• When you did not enter the“Vehicle Number” on the e-Way Bill
• When you shift goods to another vehicle/conveyance during transit due to breakdown or transhipment

Note:

1. You cannot edit any other details of the e-way bills.
2. You can update vehicle details for multiple e-way bills in a single shot using the “Bulk update vehicle number” option on the e-way bill portal, where an excel template can be filled up and uploaded.

10. Click on the “Submit” button.
11. If the mode of transportation is rail, air, or ship, enter the transporter document number instead of the vehicle number.
12. Now, your e-way bill gets updated with new details instantly. However, if there are any errors, they will be displayed.

Transporter ID on e-Way Bills

Initially assigned Transporter/seller who generated e-way bills can change/ re-assign the Transporter ID, thereby replacing the existing transporter with a new one. However, if the initially assigned transporter assigns another transporter by changing the “TransID,” then the seller cannot make any changes. Further, you can edit only Part-B details.

Here is a step-by-step re-assignment of another transporter:

1. Select “Update EWB Transporter” under the “e-way bill” option on the dashboard’s left-hand side panel.

Note: You can enter “Transporter GSTIN” or “Transporter enrolment ID.”

1. Enter the new/changed “Transporter ID” and Click “Submit.”
2. You can view the updated e-way bill and click on “Print” to print the e-way bill.

Note: The e-way bill number will remain the same if you change the transporter details.
