Hello I'm a seafood exporter, I recently found myself in a situation where I needed to submit a commercial invoice on a Friday in order to file a shipping bill with customs. The purpose was to secure a container slot on a Monday NVOCC steamer, which would transport the container to the mother port. Consequently, the container would only leave my factory premises on Monday morning.

In this case, I have a couple of questions:

After entering the commercial invoice on Friday, do I also need to generate the e-invoice on the same day or can i generate on monday ?
Is there a specific time window for generating the e-way bill once the e-invoice has been filed?

WHAT ARE THE SUPPLIES COVERED UNDER E-INVOICING?

e-Invoicing currently applies to-

Supplies to SEZs developers (with/without payment of tax),
Exports (with/without payment of tax), and
Deemed exports,

that are made by the notified class of taxpayers. It does not cover Free Trade & Warehousing Zones (FTWZ), import transactions, input service distributors, high sea sales and bonded warehouse sales. The exemption is with respect to entity and not transaction.
