E-Way Bill Distance Helper
An e-way bill's validity depends on the distance the goods travel. This helper applies the current rules — one day for every 200 km (or part) for normal cargo, and one day for every 20 km for over-dimensional cargo — so you can quickly find how many days your e-way bill will be valid.
Validity rules
| Cargo type | Validity |
|---|---|
| Normal cargo | 1 day up to 200 km, + 1 day per additional 200 km (or part) |
| Over-Dimensional Cargo | 1 day per 20 km (or part) |
