Hy guys, I have a doubt. If I have a validation rule in an object that avoid to save a record with the field in blank, if I try to import this record with this field in blank via data loader or import wizard, the validation rule will fire?

Hi Matheus,
The validation rule will fire for any import, whether with the data loader or importing wizard.

"
- Field Validation Rules—Salesforce runs validation rules on records before they are imported. Records that fail validation aren’t imported. Consider deactivating the appropriate validation rules before running an import if they affect the records you are importing".
