Submit a Manuscript via email to Executive Editor

Two-stage submission — first, send a Quick Submission (manuscript only, in any format). If your paper passes the preliminary screening, you will then be invited to submit the full set of required documents and a properly formatted manuscript for double-blind review.

Follow our three easy steps to ensure a smooth, double‑blind peer review. Submissions that do not meet the requirements will be returned for correction.

Important Notice (Effective 10 August 2025): JESTEC no longer accepts submissions of review or survey articles, short reports or letters, case studies, methodology papers, or bibliometric analyses. Please ensure that your manuscript falls within the accepted categories stated in the journal’s Aims and Scope before preparing and submitting your work.
