Firefox has no built-in option for exporting/importing passwords, but you can use the Password Exporter add-on to do this.

An alternative approach is to backup your entire profile folder (location where bookmarks and passwords are stored, plus other user data that Firefox uses), for details see either of these article - Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles or Profile backup - MozillaZine Knowledge Base
