Commitment to Open Science, Multilingualism, and Editorial Quality

Special APC Policy for 2026

Throughout 2026, Scientia International will implement a special policy to support the initial consolidation of its scientific journals.

All articles accepted for publication in Volume 1, Issue 1 of each journal will receive a full waiver of the Article Processing Charge – APC.

From Volume 1, Issue 2, and for articles accepted until 31 December 2026, a 66.7% reduction in the regular APC will apply, reducing the fee from:

Regular fee: €450.00
Special 2026 fee: €150.00 per accepted article

This measure is intended to support the consolidation of the journals, encourage new submissions, and expand the international academic circulation of published research.

The waiver and reduction apply to the APC for the basic publication service. Optional editorial services remain subject to the fees indicated on this page.
