Publication Schedule

PUBLICATION SCHEDULE 

Regular Frequency
CITIZEN : Jurnal Ilmiah Multidisiplin Indonesia declares a bimonthly publication frequency, corresponding to six regular issues per calendar year. One annual volume contains the regular numbered issues. The publication date shown on each issue and article records its actual release; dates must not be backdated to imply compliance with a planned schedule.

Planned issue calendar
The regular issue calendar is February, April, June, August, October, December, effective from February 2026. Any transition in numbering or frequency is announced publicly. Actual publication dates remain recorded on articles and issues; the announced calendar is not a basis for altering historical dates.

Submission and issue allocation
Submissions may be received throughout the year. Issue allocation follows completion of review, author revisions and production, together with editorial planning. Submission or payment does not guarantee acceptance or publication in a requested issue. Any advertised processing time is an estimate and must not bypass peer review.

Special issues and delays
Special issues are explicitly identified, with their scope and responsible editors disclosed. They do not silently replace regular issues. Delays or changes in frequency must be announced with the reason, revised plan and applicable volume or issue. Previously published issue dates and numbering remain part of the historical record. The archive at https://journal.das-institute.com/index.php/citizen-journal/issue/archive provides the record of released issues.
