Payment and Administration Mechanism
We uphold transparency in the administrative process. Therefore, invoices will only be sent to authors after the article has been accepted based on the recommendation of the review team. As a final administrative requirement, an official Letter of Acceptance (LoA) will be issued immediately after the author confirms payment.

Fast-Track Service
Understanding authors' need for more efficient publication times, Visualita Journal has launched a Fast-Track program. Given the stringent selection process, we limit this quota to one article per issue. Authors who choose this program will be charged double the normal rate, in exchange for a faster review process and guaranteed publication schedule. Authors who wish to do so can contact the Visualita Journal Editorial Team.

Article Withdrawal Policy
Authors need to be aware of any withdrawal of a published article, whether for technical or personal reasons. Publication fees already submitted are non-refundable.

Article withdrawals are subject to adjustments to the new publication fees. Authors who have submitted articles can consider whether to continue their submissions (the Editorial Team will confirm this with each author). (This will not incur a penalty if the author decides to withdraw their article.)

This policy is part of Jurnal Visualita's transformation into a more professional and sustainable publication platform. We urge all prospective authors to carefully review these provisions before submitting. If an author has already submitted an article and their article is subject to withdrawal under this new policy, please contact our editorial team for further action.

Thank you for your contribution and trust in growing with Jurnal Visualita.
