Fees and Costs
In line with our commitment to open science, the internationalization of knowledge, and the strengthening of national scientific production, our journals are continuously evolving through technological and editorial improvements. These include:
-
Integration with advanced cloud-based systems to ensure data security and platform stability;
-
Indexing in high-visibility international databases;
-
Assignment of persistent digital identifiers (DOI), regulated and priced in USD by international agencies.
These improvements should not be seen as mere publication costs, but rather as a strategic contribution to the sustainable development of science and technology, enhancing the visibility, traceability, and credibility of published research.
To support the maintenance and expansion of these essential tools, the following contribution per accepted article is requested:
-
Authors affiliated with AlfaUnipac: R$ 100.00 (editorial response within 15 days);
-
External authors: R$ 190.00 (editorial response within 3 days).
This contribution helps fund:
-
Cloud platform hosting and maintenance;
-
Indexing in reputable academic databases;
-
DOI generation and management;
-
Ongoing editorial and technical support.
Note: After publication, any change request resulting from submission errors will require re-indexing and DOI reallocation, with a processing fee of R$ 170.00 to cover the technical adjustments and system updates.
