## Version history
GitLab can import bundles that were exported from a different GitLab deployment.
This ability is limited to two previous GitLab [minor](../policy/maintenance.md#versioning)
releases, which is similar to our process for [Security Releases](../policy/maintenance.md#security-releases).
For example:
| Current version | Can import bundles exported from |
|-----------------|----------------------------------|
| 13.0 | 13.0, 12.10, 12.9 |
| 13.1 | 13.1, 13.0, 12.10 |
