8. Article Processing Charges (APC)
Important Note: We would like to inform our authors that there will be no Article Processing Charges (APC) applicable for the years 2023 and 2024. All submitted articles will undergo the standard review process and, if accepted, will be published without any publication fees.
We believe in the principle of open access, and therefore, all articles published in our journals are made freely available online immediately upon publication. However, we require an article-processing charge (APC) to cover the costs of publishing services that we provide to authors. These services include online tools for editors and authors, article production and hosting, liaising with abstracting and indexing services, and customer support.
Once your manuscript is editorially accepted, the APC will be charged to you or your funder, institution, or employer before publication. We understand that not everyone can afford the APC, and we offer a waiver or a reduction of the APC in certain circumstances. Our APCs align with industry standards, and we strive to keep them as affordable as possible to encourage open access to research.
We believe open access to scientific research is vital for advancing knowledge and global progress. By making research freely available to everyone, we hope to increase the accessibility and impact of scientific discoveries and facilitate collaboration among researchers worldwide.
After a manuscript has been accepted for publication and the author has been notified of the acceptance, the author or the author's organization should buy an APC of 350 euros within 2 weeks of acceptance notification.
The previous charge is for the number of pages beyond the standard length of (12) pages. In the final accepted paper (sent by the authors), the 13th page and above will incur an excess page charge, currently 35 euros per page.
The authors will make the publication choice after they are notified of the acceptance of the submission for the publication. Therefore, it will have no effect on the peer-review process or acceptance of the submission.
