Open Scientific Publishers operate on a full open-access model. This means that readers are not charged for accessing articles — all published content is freely available online immediately upon publication. This model supports the broad dissemination and reuse of research under the terms of the "Creative Commons Attribution License". which allows users to share and adapt the work with proper attribution.
To support this, we charge a flat Article Processing Charge (APC), applied only upon acceptance of a manuscript following peer review. This fee contributes to all stages of the publication process, including editorial handling, peer review, production, hosting, indexing, and archiving.

* Authors who are unable to pay the full publication fee may apply for a discount. To maintain low overall publication costs, discounts are not granted automatically but are considered on a case-by-case basis. Priority is given to authors from developing or transitional countries. Each request is carefully reviewed to ensure fairness while supporting equitable access to publishing opportunities.
The costs of producing and maintaining OSP are recovered by charging a publication fee to authors or research sponsors for each article that they publish.
Our APC's vary depending on the specific journal. You can find the exact fee listed on each journal’s homepage under the “For Authors” section. This charge is only applicable after your article has been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication.
The manuscript has several critical issues that need to be addressed before it can be considered for publication:
Recommendation: Major revision or rejection, depending on the extent to which the authors can address the above concerns.
At Open Scientific Publishers, all articles are published as open access. This means that readers worldwide have immediate, unrestricted access to the full text of all published articles. To make this possible, we rely on Article Publication Charges (APCs), which support the essential services required to maintain high-quality, open-access publishing.
We are committed to providing a transparent, fair, and sustainable open-access model that benefits both authors and readers alike.
What the APC Covers:
Our Financial Goals:
You are required to pay the Article Publication Charges (APC) only after your manuscript has successfully passed peer review and is formally accepted for publication. No fees are charged at the time of submission. Once accepted, you will receive an invoice with payment instructions. Prompt payment of the APC ensures timely processing, production, and publication of your article. This fee supports editorial services, typesetting, online hosting, indexing, and long-term archiving. We believe in transparency and fairness—charging only when your work is approved for publication, ensuring you receive full value for your investment in open-access dissemination.
