Article Processing Charge (APC), publication fee:

We want to inform you about our Article Processing Charge (APC) policy. To ensure the highest standards of article review, processing, correction, and publication, an APC will be charged immediately upon submitting your manuscript if the article meets the scope of the journal and our quality criteria. This fee supports the comprehensive services we provide, including:

  • Thorough Peer Review: Ensuring your research is rigorously evaluated by experts in the field.
  • Efficient Processing: Streamlining administrative and technical workflows to expedite publication.
  • Professional Correction: Providing meticulous editing and proofreading to enhance the clarity and quality of your article.
  • High-Quality Publication: Offering a seamless publishing experience with widespread dissemination of your work.

By charging the APC upfront, we can maintain the integrity and efficiency of our publication process. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter.

If the article is rejected during the review process, we will deduct the fee for the review and refund the remaining amount. This fee enables us to ensure a high-quality and efficient review and processing of all submitted articles.
