They were destined for addresses in Offaly and Meath.
100,000 cigarettes - destined for Offaly and Meath - have been seized at Dublin Airport.
Revenue officers discovered the smuggled items in air cargo consignments that arrived from Germany, Italy and Lithunania.
The cigarettes were concealed in items described as ‘meteorological equipment’, ‘medical equipment’ and ‘bed linen’ and have a combined estimated retail value of €68,530.
That represents a potential loss to the Exchequer of €54,579. The consignments were destined for delivery to counties Offaly and Meath.
Investigations are ongoing.
Revenue says these seizures are part of their ongoing operations targeting the shadow economy and the supply and sale of illegal tobacco products.
