Publication Fee

Jurnal Lentera Kesehatan Masyarakat (JLKM) provides immediate, free access to all published articles. The Article Processing Charge (APC) is IDR 700,000 (Rp700.000) per accepted article.

This is the total publication fee and covers peer review management, editorial processing, copyediting, layout, DOI registration, and online publication. No additional fees are charged for submission, review, pages, color figures, or any other publication-related service.

When Payment Is Required

Manuscript submission is free. The APC becomes payable only after the manuscript has completed peer review and the editor has formally accepted it for publication. Editorial decisions are based on scholarly and ethical criteria and are independent of payment.

Payment Procedure

After acceptance, the editorial office provides payment instructions through the designated third-party partner. JLKM does not accept direct payments to the journal's bank account. Authors may verify the payment instructions and the identity of the authorized partner by contacting staff@jurnalkesmas.co.id.

Waivers

JLKM has not offered APC waivers since March 2022.
