Why am I getting a blocked user error when trying to generate an e-Way bill, even though the GSTIN is active?
If you have not filed GST returns for the last two consecutive months or quarters, you will be blocked from generating e-Way bills. The blocked GSTIN cannot be used to generate e-Way bills either as a Consignor or a Consignee.
Note: Once the taxpayer files the return on the GST Common Portal, their GSTIN will be unblocked on the e-Way bill system the next morning.
If the taxpayer wants to generate e-Way bills immediately after filing the return, they can log in to their e-Way bill portal and follow the steps below:
- Select the Search option and choose Update Block Status.
- Enter the GSTIN and check the status.
- If it is blocked, use the Update option to retrieve the latest filing status from the GST Common Portal and get it unblocked.
