VAMED condemns GRA seizure of four company vehicles, threatens legal action

(Kaieteur News) – VAMED Engineering GmbH has condemned the seizure of four company-owned vehicles by the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA), describing the action as unlawful and warning that it will pursue all available legal options.

In a statement issued on Monday, the company said the vehicles, comprising three trucks and a car, were seized by GRA Customs Enforcement officers on the afternoon of 7th November, 2026. The vehicles were reportedly purchased by and registered in the name of VAMED Engineering GmbH.

The company’s attorney-at-law, C.A. Nigel Hughes, said that during the seizure, GRA officers were asked to identify the legal authority under which they were acting and produce supporting documentation. However, according to Hughes, the Customs Enforcement officer neither identified the applicable law nor produced documents establishing the legal basis for the seizure.
