I'm going to mention an alternative to the work-in-progress native LastPass importer, or the 1Password.com CSV importer if you are still having trouble. I've generally remained on the sidelines regarding this, since I know the 1Password crew is working hard at bringing a better import experience for LastPass.

My https://1password.community/discussion/101693/moving-to-1password-from-another-password-manager has a lastpass CSV converter which should work well with a raw LastPass CSV export. If you are having trouble, you're welcome to try it. Since LastPass' CSV export does not include attachments, you'll have to handle those manually (this is where 1Password's native importer will be a huge win, and once they feel it is ready, I will denote that my lastpass converter should be used only as a last resort).

The converter has been well tested with 1Password CSV exports for years.
