Transporter ID (TRANSIN) Enrolment on the E-Way Bill Portal
Transporters who are not registered under GST enrol on the E-Way Bill portal using Form GST ENR-01 (Registration → Enrolment for Transporters). They receive a 15-digit Transporter ID, also called TRANSIN, plus a username and password. Enrolment is free.

What is a Transporter ID?
An e-way bill records who is carrying the goods. A GST-registered transporter is identified by its GSTIN. A transporter without GST registration needs another identifier, so the E-Way Bill system issues a Transporter ID (TRANSIN). It is 15 characters long and built in a GSTIN-like format based on the state and PAN.
Suppliers enter the Transporter ID in the e-way bill so the transporter can then log in and update vehicle details (Part B).
GSTIN, TRANSIN and common enrolment compared
| Who uses it | How to get it | |
|---|---|---|
| GSTIN | Transporters registered under GST | GST registration on the GST common portal |
| Transporter ID (TRANSIN) | Transporters not registered under GST | Form GST ENR-01 on the E-Way Bill portal |
| Common enrolment number | GST-registered transporters with GSTINs in several states who want a single ID | Form GST ENR-02 on the GST common portal |
A transporter that takes a common enrolment number uses it in place of its separate state GSTINs for e-way bill purposes.

How to enrol: Form GST ENR-01 step by step
- Open the official portal
Go to ewaybillgst.gov.in, open the Registration menu and choose Enrolment for Transporters.

The portal checks your PAN and sends OTPs to verify your mobile and email.
- Upload proofs and choose login details
Upload the documents asked for, then choose a username and password.
- Submit and note your Transporter ID
On successful submission the portal shows your Transporter ID. Share it with suppliers so they can enter it on e-way bills.
After enrolment: logging in and updating Part B
Log in on the official portal with your new username, password and OTP. When a supplier generates an e-way bill with your Transporter ID, you can update the vehicle number (Part B), or change the vehicle during transit, from your login.
Enrolment is for e-way bill purposes. It does not by itself make you liable to pay GST or file GST returns, and it doesn't replace GST registration if your business is required to register.
Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between ENR-01 and ENR-02?
ENR-01 is for transporters not registered under GST, to get a Transporter ID. ENR-02 is for GST-registered transporters with GSTINs in multiple states who want a single common enrolment number.
