N2 - This study uses a case-study method through personal interviews with owners of seven family-owned firms in the Czech Republic in order to determine factors affecting their internationalisation. We examine four research questions on factors which have been identified by previous research to influence internationalisation of family-owned firms. The results indicate that owners motives and size of their companies contribute to their internationalisation. On the other hand, owners background, product characteristics, and the knowledge of foreign markets are not necessary conditions for internationalisation of family-owned firms. Finally, the results of the study appear to show that the pattern of perceptions about export costs and barriers depends upon the kinds of costs and barriers are being investigated.
