The main purpose of the study is to identify the country-specific determinants of intra-industry trade in services for Turkey by using the Intra-Industry Trade Theory and then to compare its findings with the country-specific determinants of intra-industry trade in commercial goods. The findings indicated that the most important factors within the country-specific determinants that were suggested as of 2005 were similarity of demand structures, participation in economic integrations, and commercial transaction costs. All factors produced the expected results, except for foreign direct investments; however, the correlation between intra-industry trade and foreign direct investment, which is complementary and positive in terms of intra-industry trade in commercial goods, yielded a reverse outcome for commercial services. Inward foreign direct investments substituted the services trade and had a decreasing effect on the intra-industry trade rates of Turkey in services.
