That highly depends on your system. But the easiest way in most circumstances is to export data of your system to csv file (one row per issue, one column per field) and import csv using jira importer

Mmm, CSV isn't going to cut it for that, you're going to need to think about converting your data to Jira's import XML, or writing Jelly scripts to do it. Or another format that Jira can import from
