# Testing e-Invoicing on the Sandbox System

The **e-Invoice Sandbox System** is an API testing portal that lets you test and get familiar with the e-invoicing system before you start using the Invoice Registration Portal (IRP) for generating e-invoices.

Starting 28 July 2022, [tax payers with turnover above 5 crores can use the e-invoice sandbox system](https://einv-apisandbox.nic.in/announcements.html) to test e-invoicing before you generate e-invoices.

### How the e-Invoice Sandbox System works in Zoho Billing

The e-Invoice System has provided an option for taxpayers to register themselves using their GSTINs on the sandbox system. So, taxpayers can register themselves in one of the following categories:

*   Through GSP (In this case, Zoho Billing)
*   Through ERP
*   Direct API Access (only for taxpayers with turnover more than 100 crores)
*   Through ‘Direct API Access Users’
*   Users having ‘E-Way Bill API Access’ already

Since Zoho is a registered **GST Suvidha Provider** (GSP), you can register yourself on the sandbox system in the ‘**Through GSP**’ category.

Before you register on the sandbox system, you will have to [create a new organisation](/in/billing/help/sales/e-invoicing/einvoicing-sandbox.html#new-temp-org) in Zoho Billing to use it for testing and [contact us to enable the sandbox option](/in/billing/help/sales/e-invoicing/einvoicing-sandbox.html#email-support).

### Create a new temporary organisation

You can easily create a new organisation in Zoho Billing. To create:

*   Log in to your existing Zoho Billing organisation.

If you want to use this organisation beyond 14 days for testing, you will have to extend the trial period by writing to [support@zohobilling.com](mailto:support@zohobilling.com). After you complete your testing, you can delete this temporary organisation.

Next, you can write to the Zoho Billing’s support team to enable sandbox for this organisation.
