 * Hello
    I have to import around 1500 products in 80 categories. I have the xls
   file with categories, products, additional images & options etc on separate sheets.
   My doubt is do I just import the products csv and the categories also will be
   intact? Or do I have to create / import the categories first before importing
   the products? The categories contain nested (sub)categories. I am a beginner,
   so please bear with me.. and let me know how to do it.. Thanks a lot.

 * Hi [@wpusr1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpusr1/)
 * You can import the categories during the product import – WP All Import will 
   create new categories if it doesn’t find existing ones with the same names/slugs.
   Please see the “Categories & Taxonomies” section here for more information: [http://www.wpallimport.com/documentation/](http://www.wpallimport.com/documentation/).
