Article Processing Charge

To support the sustainability of editorial operations and maintain the quality of publication services, the International Journal Business and Entrepreneurship (IJBAE) applies an Article Processing Charge (APC) for accepted manuscripts.

1. APC Implementation
The APC policy is applied starting from Volume 2 Issue 2 onward. The charge is only applied to manuscripts that have successfully passed the peer review process and have been formally accepted for publication.

2. APC Amount
The publication fee is structured as follows:
- Authors based in Indonesia: IDR 350,000
- Authors based outside Indonesia: USD 25

3. What the APC Covers
The APC is used to support the operational and editorial processes, including:
- Manuscript handling and editorial management
- Peer review coordination
- DOI registration and metadata processing
- Copyediting and layout formatting
- Journal system maintenance and online hosting
- Digital publication and long-term accessibility

4. No Submission Fee
IJBAE does not charge any fee for manuscript submission or initial review. Authors are only required to pay the APC after the manuscript has been accepted for publication.

5. Transparency and Commitment
The APC is kept at an affordable level to support wider participation from researchers while ensuring the sustainability and quality of the journal’s publication process.
