Article Processing Charges

De Gruyter offers all authors who publish open access articles with us comprehensive and high-quality services. To cover these publication and associated costs, we usually apply an article processing charge (APC) to open access articles. The level of the APC depends on the journal and authors should check on the journal’s website before manuscript submission. However, as funding might be an obstacle to getting your research out to the world, we offer a waiver policy for each journal in addition to individual discretionary discounts/waivers.
