APC Policy

The International Journal of Kashmir Studies (IJKS) does not charge authors any Article Processing Charge (APC) for the publication of accepted manuscripts. Authors are not required to pay submission fees, processing fees, publication fees, or any other mandatory charges at any stage of the editorial, peer-review, or publication process.

The journal is committed to supporting equitable access to scholarly publishing and ensuring that financial considerations do not prevent researchers from submitting their work. All manuscripts are evaluated solely on the basis of their academic quality, originality, relevance, and compliance with the journal’s editorial and peer-review standards.

There are no publication charges for authors, and articles are made available to readers through the journal’s open access platform without subscription or access fees.
