Article Processing Charge

Jurnal Return publishes all its articles in full open access format. The scientific community and the general public have, for free, unlimited and immediate access to all content published in Jurnal Return as soon as it is published on the Internet. This means that Jurnal Return does not receive any income from selling subscriptions to print or view online versions of its journals or from charging "pay-per-view" fees. Therefore, Jurnal Return needs to defray its editorial and production costs by collecting article processing charge (APC) from authors' institutes or research funder.

The value of Jurnal Return article processing charge (APC) is 334 USD or equivalent to 5.000.000 IDR. The APC covers editorial services and production of an article.

Submission to Jurnal Return is free of charge. APC are paid when the editor states that the articles are accepted for processing to the next process.

The Jurnal Return editor does not accept any payments to our bank account. All payments use a third partner. The editor will contact the author of the APC issue when the status of the article is accepted by the two reviewers.

There has been no APC waiver since the September 2022 submission.
