Since v1.0.8 the app can export and load custom fields with duplicate field names as long as they have different types. The custom field type is identified by its key, including the app key, as in "com.atlassian.Jira.plugin.system.customfieldtypes:datepicker". This means that several custom fields in the same instance with the same name and type will not be handled correctly. During export, they will be treated as if they were a single custom field. When importing, if the app finds more than one custom field in the target instance with the same name and type impacted by the new configuration, it will stop the import with a message like this:
Found more than one custom field with the same type and name: com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.customfieldtypes:datepicker, Triage Date'

Import of complete projects (i.e their configuration, issue data and attachments) is subject to the restrictions described Atlassian's Restoring a Project From Backup page, especially:

The app supports conditions, validators and post-functions defined in standard Jira plus the following apps:
