  I am done exporting my data and it’s in Zip Format and is total 10MB. When I am trying to import it on my self hosted site on WordPress.org, it’s giving an error and is asking for 2MB data only. What should I do?

  It looks like you are working with a self-hosted WordPress.org site instead of the WordPress.com-hosted version supported here.

  Learn more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  I would take a look at this page that shows how you can increase your upload_max_filesize in your .php.ini file:
  https://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Working_with_WordPress#How_do_I_Import_a_WordPress_WXR_file_when_it_says_it_is_too_large_to_import.3F

  If that doesn’t work, I would recommend searching on the WordPress.org support forums for similar issues. If you cannot find anything that works, you can start your own thread. The forums are completely separate from each other, so you will need to register an account there if you haven’t done so already.
