# Import your project from FogBugz to GitLab

DETAILS:
**Tier:** Free, Premium, Ultimate
**Offering:** GitLab.com, Self-managed, GitLab Dedicated

> - Ability to re-import projects [introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/23905) in GitLab 15.9.

Using the importer, you can import your FogBugz project to GitLab.com
or to your self-managed GitLab instance.

The importer imports all of your cases and comments with the original
case numbers and timestamps. You can also map FogBugz users to GitLab
users.

## Prerequisites

> - Requirement for Maintainer role instead of Developer role introduced in GitLab 16.0 and backported to GitLab 15.11.1 and GitLab 15.10.5.

- [FogBugz import source](../../../administration/settings/import_and_export_settings.md#configure-allowed-import-sources)
  must be enabled. If not enabled, ask your GitLab administrator to enable it. The FogBugz import source is enabled
  by default on GitLab.com.
- At least the Maintainer role on the destination group to import to.
