Firefox lets you easily import bookmarks and other data from Google Chrome. This article gives you step-by-step instructions for getting it done.

Start the Firefox import process

Use one of these methods to import your data into Firefox from Google Chrome:

Import from the Library window

You can import data from Google Chrome into Firefox from the Bookmarks Library window:

1. Click the Firefox menu button to open the menu panel. Click Bookmarks and then click the Manage bookmarks bar at the bottom.

   

2. From the toolbar in the Library window, click Import and Backup and choose Import Data from Another Browser….

   Tip: Another way to import from another browser is to enable the Menu bar (press Alt on the keyboard to enable it temporarily), click File in Menu bar at the top of the screen and select Import from Another Browser….

The Import Wizard will open. From here, you can choose the Google Chrome profile and the data you wish to import (see below).

Import from Firefox Settings

Starting in Firefox version 113, you can also import your Google Chrome bookmarks and other data from the Firefox Settings panel:

1. Click the menu button at the top right.
2. Select Settings.
3. In the General panel to the left, click on Import Data under the Import browser data section.

   

The Import Wizard will open.

Choose data and complete the import

1. In the Import Wizard window that appears, select the Chrome profile and the data you wish to import.

   

2. To choose the data you want to import, click on the + button. Once you've made your selection, click on Import to kick off the import process.

   

   Note: The Payment methods option enables you to import payment methods saved in Chrome to Firefox.

3. All set! Click Done to wrap up the import.

   The import process will transfer the following data from Chrome to Firefox:

   • Bookmarks: Web pages you have saved in your Chrome bookmarks.
   • Saved passwords: Your usernames and passwords that Chrome remembered.
   • Browsing History: Information on the sites you have visited.
   • Form autofill data: Information you use to populate online forms.

   

Because Chrome defaults to saving bookmarks in its bookmarks toolbar, you should be able to find your imported bookmarks in a folder named From Google Chrome in the Firefox Bookmarks Toolbar. The Bookmarks Toolbar may be hidden. To show the Bookmarks Toolbar:

1. Click the menu button, click More Tools… and choose Customize Toolbar….
2. Click the Toolbars dropdown menu at the bottom of the screen and select Bookmarks Toolbar.

   

   The Bookmarks Toolbar can be set to Always Show, Never Show, or Only Show on New Tab.

3. Click Done.
