Special issue draft is a common way of academic communication in academic circles. Academic journals usually invite experts in a specific field to write professional and targeted manuscripts, with the aim of increasing high-level academic content and improving the visibility and influence of journals.

Generally speaking, journals will invite well-known experts or scholars in this field to write special issues, and these experts or scholars usually do not need to pay any fees to the journals. Periodicals will provide them with a certain fee or other forms of remuneration to thank them for their contributions. However, this does not mean that all special issue invitations are free. In some cases, journals may charge certain fees to some specific authors or institutions to compensate them for the time and resources needed to write or publish special issues.

If you receive an invitation letter for the special issue, I suggest you read the terms in the invitation letter carefully to find out whether you need to pay any fees to this journal and the specific details of the related fees. If you have any questions or concerns about this, please contact our editorial department or relevant institutions for consultation and understanding.
