Yahoo! offers 2 submission programs:

Standard submission is for non-commercial web sites only. The service is free. However, Yahoo! make no time guarantees of when your site will be reviewed.
Yahoo! Express submission is for commercial and non-commercial web sites. It guarantees a site review within 7 business days for a non-refundable US$299 ($600 for sites with adult content) submission fee.

However, payment doesn’t guarantee inclusion in the directory. It only guarantees that Yahoo! will review your web site within 7 business days. If your web site is added to the Yahoo! Directory, you will be charged the non-refundable fee, every 12 months.
Yahoo! provides instructions on how to suggest your site to their web directory.
