Article Processing Charges (APC)

To ensure the sustainable financial support of the publisher and in line with our commitment to open access publishing, all articles featured in the Earthline Journal of Chemical Sciences are freely accessible online immediately upon publication. Therefore, authors are kindly requested to cover Article Processing Charges (APC) when their papers are accepted for publication.

  • The APC for a paper is USD 60 (till December 31, 2024).
  • For authors based in India, the APC is INR 4500 (till December 31, 2024).

With effect from January 2025:

  • The APC for a paper is USD 80.
  • For authors based in India, the APC is INR 6000.

Authors hailing from "Low Income Countries" without grant support are also welcome to submit their papers. In support of these authors, Earthline Publishers will provide a reasonable discount on the article processing charges.

Notably, members of the Editorial Board of the EJCS are exempt from any Article Processing Charges.

This APC policy ensures the continued availability of high-quality open access publications while maintaining fairness and accessibility for authors across various financial contexts.
