In this article, we investigate conditions for nonemptiness and compactness of the sets of solutions of pseudomonotone vector variational inequalities by using the concept of asymptotical cones. We show that a pseudomonotone vector variational inequality has a nonempty and compact solution set provided that it is strictly feasible. We also obtain some necessary conditions for the set of solutions of a pseudomonotone vector variational inequality to be nonempty and compact.
