Fully Open Access Journals: For the majority of IEEE's fully open access journals, the article processing charge is typically $1,995 USD. However, there may be some exceptions for certain titles, and specific details should be checked in the individual journal author instructions.

Hybrid Journals: If you choose to publish in a hybrid journal (which offers both traditional subscription-based and open access options), the article processing charge is generally $2,495 USD. Again, some journals may have additional fees associated with them.

 

Page Length Fees: Most IEEE journals have a limit on the number of pages per article. If you exceed this limit, you may be required to pay overlength page charges. The amount of these charges can vary according to the specific journal.

 

Color Printing Fees: Online publication of graphics in color is usually free at IEEE. But if you want to print your graphics in color as well, there is a fee of $275 USD per color graphic. Once your accepted article enters the production stage, your IEEE journal production manager will contact you to discuss this option.

 

Reprint Fees: If you wish to purchase print copies of your published article, there are fees associated with reprints. You can visit the relevant page on the IEEE website for specific information about reprint orders.

 

Member Discounts: IEEE offers certain discounts on publication fees for its members. Members of IEEE societies or councils are eligible for a 20% discount on article processing charges. IEEE members who are not part of individual IEEE societies or councils can receive a 5% discount. It's important to note that these discounts do not apply to undergraduate and graduate students and cannot be combined or applied to other fees such as overlength or color page charges.

 

In conclusion, while there may be some costs associated with publishing in IEEE, it also offers several benefits such as high visibility, a wide readership, and a strong reputation in the academic and technical communities. Whether it is the right choice for your work depends on various factors including your research goals, funding availability, and the specific requirements and reach of the journal or publication you are targeting.
