Section 110(1) customs seizure requires a reason to believe, based on relevant material, that goods are liable to confiscation under Section 111; mere suspicion is insufficient. In the areca nuts matter, the record contained tax invoices, GST payment details and an e-way bill supporting lawful intra-State movement, while the seizure inventory and laboratory report did not show foreign origin.
