In what cases is the electronic waybill for freight transportation prepared? According to the rules, the electronic waybill, applied for accounting the activities of the freight vehicle, determines the volume of work performed and fuel consumed based on that vehicle.
Thus, while the electronic waybill includes information about the transported goods, the electronic waybill primarily records the movement of the vehicle and the amount of fuel consumed.
Example 1. A taxpayer sends construction materials to a person who ordered them using their own vehicle. In this case, the taxpayer must prepare an electronic waybill by entering information about the goods. Additionally, an electronic waybill for the vehicle must be prepared.
Example 2. A taxpayer purchases agricultural products from a producer operating in the village. The taxpayer, acting as the sender, prepares an electronic waybill and sends it to the recipient. In this case, the electronic waybill must be printed on paper and signed by a person not registered with the tax authority in accordance with the legislation.
Example 3. The taxpayer assigns the transportation of goods to another taxpayer who is the carrier. In this case, the taxpayer must send the electronic waybill to the electronic cabinet created in the carrier's information system for confirmation.
