Hi Igor,

This is described in the Patron Import section of the Koha manual:
https://koha-community.org/manual/22.05/en/html/tools.html#patron-import

"If loading patron attributes
<https://koha-community.org/manual/22.05/en/html/administration.html#patron-attribute-types-label>,
the ‘patron_attributes’ field should contain a comma-separated list of
attribute types and values.

   -

   The attribute type code and a colon should precede each value.
   -

      For example: “INSTID:12345,BASEBALL:Cubs”
      -

      This field must be wrapped in quotes if multiple values are defined.
      -

      Since values can contain spaces, additional doubled-quotes may be
      required:
      -

         “INSTID:12345,BASEBALL:Cubs,””BASEBALL:White Sox””"


So add a patron_attributes column to your import CSV and in that field
comma-separate all the attributes you want. Each attribute looks like
"LABEL:VALUE" e.g. its label, followed by a colon, followed by a value.

Best,
