GST introduced e-Way Bills, which went into effect in all of India at the start of the 2018 fiscal year. e-Way Bills were introduced to replace the previous bills, which permitted the transfer of products inside and beyond states.

Since the new law’s introduction, Uttar Pradesh was among the first states to embrace it. e-Way Bills replaced the formerly utilised Uttar Pradesh (UP) way bills.

When is the e-Way Bill to be generated in UP?

e-Way Bill implementation within the state borders of Uttar Pradesh, Kerala, Telangana, Gujarat, and Andhra Pradesh began on April 15, 2018.

When the value of the commodities being moved to or from a registered individual exceeds Rs. 50,000, an e-Way Bill is created. An e-Way Bill may still be provided by the registered person even if the products have a value of less than Rs. 50,000.

What documents are required to generate an e-Way Bill in UP?

To generate an e-Way Bill in Uttar Pradesh, you will need the following documents:

• A valid bill of supply, challan, or invoice for the shipment of goods
• The vehicle number or transporter ID must be provided if a means of road transport is engaged.
• Transporter ID, document number, and date for transportation via rail, air, or ship.

How to register on the UP portal for Intra-state generation of e-Way Bills

The process for registering for the UP portal for E-way bills is as follows:

• User Registration

Anyone who is a GST registered user and wishes to utilise this feature must register on the e-Way Bill NIC site by providing the information requested in the application window.

The user can register on the same site using a different application window if they are not enrolled for GST but have a TIN number. If the items being handled are Non-GST goods, the user must use a different window.

• Vehicle Registration

Every goods vehicle that enters or travels through UP requires a single registration before TDF-1 and TDF-2 can be produced.

If the vehicle used to transport goods changes, the user must first register the new vehicle on the site before reassigning the old vehicle to the TDF-1.
