Withdrawal of Manuscripts

WITHDRAWAL OF MANUSCRIPTS

!

Authors are discouraged from withdrawing submitted manuscripts after the peer-review process has begun. However, if a withdrawal is unavoidable, authors must adhere to the following policy:

  • Request: A formal withdrawal request must be sent via email to the Editor-in-Chief.
  • Reasoning: Authors must provide a valid and detailed reason for the withdrawal.
  • Confirmation: Withdrawal is only official once the author receives a confirmation email from the editorial office.
  • Ethics: Withdrawing a manuscript because it has been accepted by another journal (double submission) is a serious ethical violation.

If the manuscript is withdrawn after the review process is complete or during the production stage, the journal reserves the right to impose sanctions for future submissions.
