Publication Fees

Article Publishing Charges (APCs)

Submit your article today and gain worldwide visibility for your article.

In May 2022, the editorial board introduced an APC. This is due to the Ukraine war unleashed by the russian federation.

All articles published in the Journal of Sustainable Development of Transport and Logistics (ISSN 2520-2979) are published in full open access (GOA). In order to provide free access to readers, and to cover the costs of peer review, copyediting, typesetting, long-term archiving, and journal management, an article processing charge (APC) of 110 US Dollars (USD) applies to papers accepted after peer review. In addition to US Dollars (USD), we accept Euros (EUR) payments. Local VAT or Sales Tax will be added if applicable.

Waiver Policy (details)

Many national and private research funding organizations and universities explicitly cover APCs for articles from funded research projects.

Avoiding Surcharges from Extensive English Editing on Submitted Articles

Submitted papers should be written in good English. Authors may use SciView's English editing service before publication or during author revisions. If you use an alternative service that provides a confirmation certificate, please send a copy to the Editorial Office. Authors from economically developing countries or nations should consider registration with AuthorAid (https://www.authoraid.info/en/). AuthorAID is a free pioneering global network that provides support, mentoring, resources, and training for researchers in low and middle-income countries (https://www.authoraid.info/en/about/).

Funding of Article Processing Charges (APCs)

Many funding agencies explicitly allow the use of research grants for the payment of Article Processing Charges (APCs) to publish in open-access journals.

In addition, numerous institutions have created central funds to cover APCs.

Check with your institution whether Gold OA publication costs are supported.
