For example,
If you carry any prohibited or restricted items into the country, the customs will "forfeit" or "confiscate" them.
Which one is correct? If both, which one is more common?
Dictionary:
Forfeit something to lose something or have something taken away from you because you have done something wrong
Confiscate something to officially take something away from somebody, especially as a punishment
