E-way Bill for Imports: Rules and Requirements for Import Transactions

Even in the case of export, the approximate distance should be based on the distance within the country, from the place of the consignor to the place where the shipment is leaving the country and being cleared by Customs. We hope that this article gives you more information about how export transactions work. Find out about the E-Way bill for import transactions here.

Applicability of E-way Bill for Imports

When you import something, you bring it into India from somewhere else. The Customs Act outlines the steps that must be taken to clear imported goods once they arrive in India. These steps must be done until the goods are delivered to their final destination in India.

There are some transactions that are like imports and involve moving goods, but you don’t need an Eway Bill for these kinds of moves. Note that if the imported goods are covered by Rule 138 (14) of the CGST Act (E-way Bill Rules), there is no need for an E-Way Bill. In this case, after customs clearance, the goods are sent to the place of the importer.

  1. E-Way Bill Required:
    1. Goods move from the Inland Container Depot or Container Freight Station (CFS) to the importer’s business place.
    2. The move from the warehouse to the importer’s business
  2. E-Way Bill not required
    1. Customs entry from outside
    2. Goods move from the Customs port or airport to the inland container depot (ICD) or the container freight station (CFS).
    3. Goods are moved from an inland container depot or a container freight station to a warehouse.
Eway bill required and not required

Generating Eway Bill for Import transactions

An invoice or any other document that shows the movement is used to make an Eway Bill. The details of this document are given in Part A along with the details of the item. Part B has information about how to get there. For an import transaction, this is how you should fill out Parts A and B:

When making an Eway Bill, you can add up to 250 line items at most. If your Bill of Entry has more than 250 items, it is best to put the items together by HSN.
