How to Generate Transporter ID

What is Transporter ID?



TRANSIN or Transporter ID is a 15 digit unique number generated by the E-Way Bill system for transporters who have not registered themselves under GST. A Transport ID acts similar to GSTIN, and once a transporter enrolls on the e-way bill portal, the GST portal provides a transport ID for the said goods.

Transport ID operates similarly to GSTIN format and based on state code, PAN, and Check-sum digit. This TRANSIN or Transporter ID may be given by the transporter to his/her clients. Clients can then use this transport ID while generating e-waybills for the assignment of goods using the transporter.
