DOI Policy
Every IJVAST paper receives a permanent CrossRef DOI — making it permanently citable, discoverable, and verifiable worldwide.
What is a DOI?
A Digital Object Identifier (DOI) is a permanent, unique identifier assigned to a research article. Unlike a URL, a DOI never changes — it always resolves to the current location of the published article, even if the journal's website structure changes.
IJVAST DOI Format
All IJVAST papers receive a CrossRef DOI in the format:
10.62345/IJVAST.2026.XXXXX
When is the DOI Assigned?
DOIs are registered with CrossRef within 24–48 hours of publication. Once registered, the DOI link becomes active globally and can be used in citations, CVs, LinkedIn, ORCID, ResearchGate, and any academic platform.
How to Cite Using a DOI
Standard IEEE citation format including DOI:
A. Author, "Title of paper," IJVAST, vol. 1, no. 1, pp. 1–8, 2026, doi: 10.62345/IJVAST.2026.00001.
Verifying a DOI
You can verify any IJVAST DOI by visiting doi.org and entering the full DOI, or by appending it to https://doi.org/. You can also verify any IJVAST certificate at our certificate verification page.
