Article processing charges
During submission, authors can choose to have their article published open access for 3,885 GBP
(exclusive of VAT for UK and EU authors). Publishing open access has multiple benefits including wider
reach, faster impact and increased citation and usage. Authors can also choose to publish their article in
colour for the print edition – instead of the default option of black and white – for 436 GBP. There are no
submission, page or online-only colour figure charges.
Waivers and discounts
If authors choose to publish their article open access, an APC waiver may be available. Before applying for
an APC waiver please consider:
(1) Does your institution have an open access agreement with BMJ? If it does, then this may cover all
or part of the APC for your article. Check BMJ’s open access agreements page to find out whether your
institution is a member and what discounts you may be entitled to.
(2) Have you received funding from a funder with an open access mandate or policy that covers
paying APCs? If so, BMJ expects that the APC will be paid in full.
If neither (1) nor (2) above apply then consider
(3) Are all the authors of your article based in low-income countries*? If so, you are eligible to apply
for a full or partial waiver from BMJ.
Visit our author hub to learn more about our waivers policy and how to request one.
