The Article Processing Charges for accepted submissions in the Journal of Basic & Applied Sciences (JBAS) are US$ 330.
JBAS is an independent title. It is not sponsored by any university, group, or institution. All the papers are published with Open Access, which allows a wider spread of research through public access, a more significant number of citations, and recognition of authors.
It involves high costs to support the journals’ editorial office, production processes, and hosting for online access. Therefore, the author or their institution/research grant must meet the publishing costs.
There are no article submission charges, and the initial evaluation of all the articles is done free of cost.
Discounts
Authors whose research is not funded by any organization can apply for a 35% discount. Any further discounts may be given on a case-to-case basis and are subjected to the approval of editors and management. Applications for discounts should be submitted initially at manuscript submission.
Waivers
As per the World Bank, APC waivers are offered to authors belonging to low-income countries. Authors can submit applications regarding waivers during the manuscript submission process. On special requests, waivers may also be provided to authors not belonging to low-income countries. All applications will be evaluated based on the quality and importance of research and the author’s financial stability.
Method of Payment
Our Accounting Department will email the invoice for the payment of the APC to the corresponding author.
There are two methods of payment:
- Debit/Credit card
- Bank Transfer
Please note that the Article Processing Charges are exclusive of local taxes that may apply depending on the author’s country and government policies.
