Please be advised that, effective January 1, 2027, Food Science and Preservation (FSP) will transition from the current publication charge system to an Article Processing Charge (APC) system.

The APCs will be applied as follows:

• Korean-language manuscripts: KRW 600,000 per manuscript
• English-language manuscripts: KRW 300,000 per manuscript
• Manuscripts submitted by authors outside Korea: USD 300 per manuscript
• Fast-track manuscripts: An additional expedited review fee of KRW 300,000 (USD 300 for manuscripts submitted by authors outside Korea)
• Invited English-language review articles: Exempt from all APCs

The new APC policy will apply to manuscripts submitted on or after January 1, 2027. Manuscripts submitted by December 31, 2026 will remain subject to the current publication charge policy.
