Document background
The Author Declaration Form is a crucial document in the Saudi Arabian publishing landscape, required whenever an author submits work for publication in academic journals, books, or other publishing formats. This form serves multiple purposes: it establishes the author's legal right to publish, confirms compliance with both international publishing standards and local Saudi regulations, and provides necessary declarations regarding originality and ethical compliance. The document is particularly important in Saudi Arabia where publications must adhere to both modern international publishing standards and Islamic law principles. The Author Declaration Form typically accompanies manuscript submissions and must be completed before any work can proceed to publication, forming part of the legal documentation between authors and publishers.
