E-Way Bill Validity & Distance Calculator (200 km/day Rule)

10% distance allowance helper

The e-way bill portal auto-calculates the PIN-to-PIN distance. You can enter the actual distance up to 10% more than that figure. Enter the portal's PIN-to-PIN distance to see the maximum you can enter.

PIN-to-PIN distance from the portal

Enter a distance to see the allowance.

This website does not calculate road distance between PIN codes — there is no map service behind it. Enter the distance yourself, or check the portal's auto-calculated figure.

Where the source and destination PIN code are the same, a distance of up to 100 km can be entered.

The E-Way Easy app calculates distance automatically from the PIN codes, and you can edit it.

How validity is calculated

Cargo	Validity
Normal cargo	1 day for every 200 km or part thereof
Over-dimensional cargo (ODC)	1 day for every 20 km or part thereof

Days = distance ÷ km per day, rounded up. The first day ends at midnight of the day following generation, and each further day ends at the next midnight. So expiry = 11:59:59 pm on (generation date + days).

Example (illustrative)

A Morbi tile trader enters Part B on 13 October 2026 at 4:30 pm for 620 km of normal cargo. 620 ÷ 200 = 3.1, rounded up to 4 days. The e-way bill is valid till 17 October 2026, 11:59:59 pm, and can be extended from about 3:59 pm on 17 October to about 7:59 am on 18 October.

Distance: what you enter vs what the portal calculates

The portal auto-calculates PIN-to-PIN distance and allows up to 10% more. The maximum is 4,000 km. This website cannot look up road distances, so enter the figure yourself. Read more in distance rules and e-way bill validity.

Frequently asked questions

How many days is an e-way bill valid for 300 km?

2 days for normal cargo, because validity is 1 day for every 200 km or part thereof, and 300 km falls in the 201–400 km band.

When does the first day end?

At midnight of the day following generation. An e-way bill generated at 10:15 am on 14 October with 1 day validity is valid till 11:59 pm on 15 October.

Does this tool calculate distance between PIN codes?

No. The website has no map service, so you enter the distance. The e-way bill portal auto-calculates PIN-to-PIN distance, and the E-Way Easy app also calculates distance from PIN codes.

How much more than the portal distance can I enter?

Up to 10% more than the auto-calculated PIN-to-PIN distance, subject to the 4,000 km maximum.

When can I extend the validity?

Within 8 hours before or 8 hours after expiry, when goods cannot reach in time due to exceptional circumstances. As reported by GSTN, from 1 January 2025 total extension is capped at 360 days from the original generation date.
