There were checked model without dynamic parameter and with dynamic parameter. For estimation of influence above mentioned parameters were used fixed effects model, random effects model and pooled ordinary least squares (POLS). For dynamic model were applied generalized method of moments and POLS. The results showed that Wage, appreciation of Ex and RaD positively determined inward of FDI to Czech regions and there was not found negative determinant inward of FDI. In other hand results of dynamic model implies that inward of FDI in preceding year, appreciation of Ex, RaD have positive impact on inward of FDI in current year. But there were founded negative impact of Un and Inf on inward of FDI. Results of this research enable the policy makers or decision makers try to focus their attention on specific factors and eliminate to consume scarce funding.
