[2023-09-06 Add]
If the publisher of the journal to which you are submitting changes from Wiley to another company (transfer), articles that have not yet been published (published in Early View) at the time of transfer are not eligible for the transformative agreements with Wiley (i.e., are not eligible for discounted APCs). Please note that in such cases, authors are required to pay the full amount of the APC to the transferring publisher (if you publish as a non-OA in a hybrid journal, you do not need to pay the APC). Please refer to the following file for details.
