Quick answer

Printing is for an E-Way Bill that already exists. Logged in: e-Waybill → Print EWB, enter the 12-digit E-Way Bill number, click Go, then Print or Detailed Print. Without login: use the portal’s Search → E-Way Bill page and enter the EWB number, date, generator’s GSTIN and document number. To download, choose Save as PDF in the print dialog.

Does the driver need a printout?

The person in charge of the vehicle must carry the invoice or challan and a copy of the E-Way Bill, which can be physical or the E-Way Bill number in electronic form. Many transporters keep a PDF on the driver’s phone and a paper copy as backup.

Troubleshooting

“No record found”

Check each digit of the EBN and the generation date; use the generator’s GSTIN, not yours.
