Publication Fee

Article Processing Charges (APC)

The University of Zawia Journal of Economic Sciences (UZJES) applies an Article Processing Charge (APC) to support the sustainable publication of high-quality scholarly research within its open-access publishing model. The APC enables the journal to uphold rigorous editorial and peer-review standards while ensuring that all published articles remain freely and permanently accessible to readers worldwide, without subscription or access fees.


Important Notes

  • The APC covers the entire publication workflow, including editorial handling, peer review, copyediting, typesetting, online publication, DOI assignment, indexing preparation, and long-term archiving.

  • No additional charges are applied at any stage of the publication process.

  • APC waivers or reductions may be granted to eligible authors upon justified request and subject to editorial approval.

  • The APC is non-refundable once the peer-review process has commenced, regardless of the final editorial decision.
