Launch of New GST e-Invoice Portal

Launch of New GST e-Invoice Portal

GSTN has launched four new IRPs (Invoice Reporting Portals) for reporting e-invoices in addition to NIC-IRP. As a result, the beta launch of a new e-Invoice portal (www.einvoice.gst.gov.in), has been done where taxpayers can find comprehensive information on e-invoice compliance in a user-friendly format, such as check your enablement status, self-enable themselves for invoicing, search for IRNs, web links to all IRP portals – all the relevant links/information in one convenient location. Taxpayers can log in to the new e-invoice portal using their GSTN credentials for select services pertaining to their GSTIN profiles.

The portal <einvoice.gst.gov.in> is reference site for all masters (data), news and updates, latest releases etc. For registering e-invoices and to access APIs, you still need to go to <einvoiceX.gst.gov.in> sites. The urls of IRPs sites authorised to generate IRNs as on date are as follows:

Also, at the helpdesk for e-invoice issues, for supporting the taxpayers vis-a-vis IRP issues is available at our Grievance Redressal Portal <selfservice.gstsystem.in> where the relevant IRP can be selected using the dropdown created for each of the private IRP.

Please note that taxpayers can continue to report e-invoices on the NIC IRP portal <einvoice1.gst.gov.in> as previously.
