GİB-Approved Special Integrator e-Waybill Software and Special Integrator in Turkey
Digital dispatch note · Closed system · Storage for the statutory period
The electronic equivalent of the paper dispatch note issued when goods are shipped, with the same legal standing as a paper waybill.
e-Waybill (e-İrsaliye) is a document whose data format and standards under the Tax Procedure Law (VUK) are set by Turkey's Revenue Administration (GİB), and which buyer and seller send through an electronic closed system, just as with e-Invoice.
It has the same legal standing and validity as a printed paper waybill. It is issued electronically at the time of shipment and transmitted through the GİB system; it digitises logistics and warehouse processes.
Who uses e-Waybill?
Taxpayers registered for the e-Invoice application whom GİB has brought within scope by communiqué.
Companies shipping in sectors such as ÖTV list (I) goods (fuel), fertiliser, iron and steel, and fruit and vegetables.
All businesses with high shipment volumes that want to digitise their logistics and warehouse processes.
What do you gain with e-Waybill?
Time and cost
The time and material resources lost in preparing, printing, approving, sending and archiving paper waybills are reduced to a minimum.
Instant access
e-Waybills are stored securely in digital form for the statutory retention period; reaching and checking a past waybill becomes simple.
Contribution to the environment
Millions of paper documents move to digital; thousands of trees stay in nature and the national economy benefits.
3 methods — we take on the 3rd
First you obtain a financial seal (legal entities) or an e-signature (natural persons). Then you choose a method:
Direct Integration
You integrate your own IT system with GİB and maintain an uninterrupted 24/7 connection. It gives full control but requires a high initial cost, technical responsibility and the GİB certification process.
GİB Portal
The application GİB offers free of charge at efatura.gov.tr. Suitable for low-volume users; it requires manual data entry and has no ERP integration.
Special Integrator (ELPO)
Authorised by GİB, ELPO creates, signs and transmits documents on your behalf and stores them for the legal period. ERP integration is ready; a 24/7 call line is available.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does an e-Waybill replace the paper waybill?
Yes. The e-Waybill has the same legal standing and validity as the paper dispatch note.
When is an e-Waybill issued?
It is issued electronically before the goods are actually shipped and is delivered to the buyer through GİB's closed system.
What must be kept in the vehicle during shipment?
A paper printout or electronic image of the e-Waybill is kept in the vehicle throughout the shipment and presented on inspection. The original of the document is electronic; the printout in the vehicle only makes presentation easier.
What is an e-Waybill response?
After receiving the goods, the buyer responds to the document: they can accept all the goods, accept part and reject the rest, or reject all of them. This response is sent through the system and records the actual outcome of the shipment.
How are e-Waybill and e-Invoice related?
The e-Waybill documents the physical shipment of the goods; the e-Invoice documents the financial side of the sale. Goods are first shipped with an e-Waybill, and the invoice can be issued later. They are separate documents and one does not replace the other.
How do you switch to e-Waybill?
You first need to be registered for the e-Invoice application; e-Waybill is opened on top of that. The application is made through a special integrator; legal entities use a financial seal and natural persons an e-signature. Because ELPO is registered on GİB's special integrator list, the application, testing and go-live are handled from a single point.
In which sectors is e-Waybill most prominent?
Shipment-heavy sectors such as fuel, fertiliser, iron and steel, and fruit and vegetables in ÖTV list (I), and companies with high-volume logistics. The scope is widening through GİB communiqués; whether your company is within scope is clarified by looking at your tax status.
How long are documents stored?
Electronic documents and their secondary copies are stored for the statutory retention period and presented when requested. Because storage is electronic, archive, printing and space costs disappear.
Does it work with my current ERP and logistics software?
Yes. The shipment record is created in your own system and the document is transmitted to GİB through the integrator; data is not entered a second time on a separate screen. If you use SmartERP, the flow is already built into the product.
