Free ISSN
In some countries, obtaining an ISSN (International Standard Serial Number) for your serial publication can be free, particularly for non-commercial, academic, or open-access publications. Many ISSN National Centers offer free registration services to support scholarly communication and research dissemination. For example, platforms like Zenodo provide free ISSN assignment for digital journals and datasets. However, fees may apply in certain regions or for specific types of services, such as expedited processing or additional metadata support. It's recommended to check the specific requirements and guidelines from the relevant ISSN National Center to determine if a fee applies to your publication.
