The GSTN issued an update dated 16.06.2025, regarding introduction of Enhanced Inter-operable Services Between E-Way Bill Portals. GSTN is pleased to inform that NIC shall be launching the new E-Way Bill 2.0 portal (https://ewaybill2.gst.gov.in) on 1st July 2025, featuring enhanced inter-operable E-Way Bill functionalities. The portal is being introduced to provide enhanced inter-operability between the existing E-Way Bill 1.0 Portal (https://ewaybillgst.gov.in) and the new portal. Eventually, the data from both E-Way Bill1 and E-Way Bill2 portals shall be seamlessly merged and integrated, thereby eliminating dependency on the E-Way Bill1 system during exigencies. The E-Way Bill2 portal is designed to synchronise E-Way Bill details with the main portal within a few seconds.
The Key points regarding the launch of the E-Way Bill 2.0 Portal from 1st July 2025 are as under:
Objective – To ensure uninterrupted services during system downtimes or exigencies. It would provide interoperability between E-Way Bill portals. Also, enables business continuity for taxpayers and transporters.
API Availability – All functionalities will be available via APIs. APIs are available in sandbox environment for testing and integration. All the above services will also be made available to taxpayers and logistics operators.
Inter-operable services and New Services Added in 2.0 – Both portals will now support the following inter-operable services, regardless of where the E-Way Bill was originally generated. The Following Additional services will be available on the E-Way Bill 2.0 portal for E-Way Bills generated on either portal (E-Way Bill 1.0 or E-Way Bill 2.0) i.e.
- Generation of E-Way Bill based on Part-A
- Generation of Consolidated E-Way Bills
- Extension of validity
- Update of transporter details
- Retrieval of consolidated E-Way Bills
Real-Time System Integration – Data is synchronised in seconds between both portals. During downtime on Portal 1.0, all operations (like Part-B updates) can be performed on Portal 2.0. E-Way Bills generated on one portal can be updated and carried using the other.
