€3.1m worth of cigarettes have been seized by Revenue's Customs Service at Dublin Port.
Around nine million Raquel brand cigarettes were concealed in a 13m container that arrived from Belgium.
Customs documentation for the contents of the container listed it as household goods that had been shipped to a fictitious company in Co Monaghan.
The detection was a result of container profiling and a scan by the Customs X-Ray Scanner Team.
Investigations into the haul are continuing.
