The paper examines the relationship between all types of intra-industry trade and revealed comparative advantage (RCA) in Visegrad Group countries. To do so, it uses an econometric model which describes this relationship in terms of Vernon’s product cycle theory. Due to the panel nature of the data, the fixed effect estimator (FE) and the random effect estimator (RE) were used to estimate the model’s parameters. This enabled the author to analyse intra-industry trade intensity by commodity groups according to SITC classification. The research uses Eurostat data on exports and imports in Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary in the years 2000–2009.
