DOIs on SSRN

In order for an SSRN submission to receive a DOI (Digital Object Identifier), it must meet the following requirements: 

• be included under your Scholarly Papers on your Author Page
• be part of the Working Papers Series (WPS)
• have the full-text PDF uploaded with the submission

Generally, eligible submissions are assigned a DOI within about a week; however, turnaround may be longer due to processing delays. Once processing is complete, the DOI will display in the Suggestion Citation on your paper's abstract page.

If you require further assistance from SSRN's Help Desk, please submit a ticket.
