MoHE approves new journal classification
The Algerian Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research has announced an update to the official lists of national scientific journals categorized into classes (A) and (B), in addition to lists of predatory journals and publishers. This initiative aims to improve the quality of academic publishing and standardize its criteria. The new classification will take effect starting July 30, 2026, and will apply to all scientific articles submitted for publication after this date. Researchers are advised to verify the credibility of journals before submitting, to avoid falling prey to fraudulent or hijacked journals that could negatively impact their academic careers. The basic criteria specify that journals must be free of charge and not impose fees, and that listed journals must be included in the Web of Science or Scopus databases, with class (A) and (B) respectively. The initiative seeks to protect national scientific output and enhance credibility in academic publishing within Algeria.
