# e-Way Bills

An e-way bill is an electronically generated document necessary for the movement of goods within or outside the states of India. e-Way bill replaces the waybill, which was a physical document used in the previous VAT system.

An e-way bill has two parts:

*   **Part A:** contains the details of a consignor, consignee, supply type, item details and transport mode.
*   **Part B:** contains details of the transporter.

If you’re initiating the movement of goods and transporting the goods yourself, you have to furnish both Part A and B details. If you have outsourced the transportation, then the transporter must furnish the Part B details. The consignor or the sender can also authorise a consignee such as the buyer, transporter, courier agency or e-commerce operator to fill Part A of the e-Way bill on their behalf.
