Decoding word "import"

port = carry

im = not

But why it means 'to https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/buy or https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/bring in https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/product from another https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/country'?
