I wanna import the animes from zoro.to to MAL. So i go to zoro.to and export the anime in mal xml format. Then i go to here https://myanimelist.net/import.php and try to import it but it says Nothing to update, are you sure you set update_on_import correctly?  I opened the xml file to find this update on import but its no where to be found
my xml file https://mega.nz/file/UZAClLaL#mb9bhDpkP4ajGaSFk0644AN_NwViW-rYVS4ydkOpfck

It means that the xml format of Zoro is too different from the one of MAL.
It isn't really a surprise , as all admins tends to arrange things differently , and the import/export feature is made to be used from account to account on the same site.

Officially , you can only adds your entries one by one , but you can also try MALSync. (Dunno if it'll works)

why even bother?
the zoro has 55 anime, your current list has 44 you can export it with https://myanimelist.net/panel.php?go=export or https://malscraper.azurewebsites.net/
and just add the ones you haven't already done to the XML using the same more advanced XML format MAL uses but that would take you more time than just adding the rest manually.
if it was hundreds or thousands I would say it'd be worth converting but not in your case.
