Summary/Abstract: The country-of-origin effect has a multi-dimensional character. Neglecting the impact of COO’s dimensions in the evaluation of the selected services may result in some simplified, inaccurate conclusions. The aim of the presented research was: 1) to determine an in-depth COO rate in the evaluation of transport services; 2) to determine a relation between the COO effect of a particular country in the evaluation of transport services and the readiness to purchase the particular service in this country. The research results indicate a strong relation between the COO effect and the readiness to purchase the particular service in this country: the higher the COO effect is, the higher readiness to purchase the service becomes.
