Support — common questions
How quickly will I get a reply?
Tickets are answered by email, usually within one working day. You get a ticket number on screen as soon as you send the form — quote it in any follow-up.
What should I include in my ticket?
Your paper’s Registration ID if you have one, the email address you used when submitting, and a short description of what you need. That lets the editorial office find your record without asking you again.
Can I check my ticket status here?
No. For your privacy this page only creates tickets — nobody can look a ticket up by its number. The reply comes to the email address you entered.
Is there a limit on how many tickets I can raise?
Yes. To keep the queue free of spam, each connection can raise a small number of tickets. If the form says it is closed for your connection, email [email protected] instead and we will pick it up from there.
Is support free?
Yes. Raising a ticket costs nothing. The only charge the journal makes is the publication charge, invoiced after your paper is accepted.

What to include in your ticket
- Your paper’s Registration ID, if you have one — it finds your record at once.
- The email address you submitted with, so the reply reaches the right inbox.
- One or two sentences on what you need: status, payment, certificate, correction or something else.
- For a payment query: the date, the amount and the transaction ID.
- For a correction: the paper ID and the exact text to change.
- Nothing confidential beyond that — never send card or bank passwords.
What happens after you send it
