Hello,

I exported/imported Requirements to new Project and it bring everything successfully including Views.

But on clicking any views it shows the respective columns but does not apply FILTERS.

Is this the acceptable behavior or am I missing something?

(Workaround I found to redefine filter for each view and udpate the existing view).

I believe this is the limitation. From the online help
https://jazz.net/help-dev/clm/topic/com.ibm.rational.rrm.help.doc/topics/t_export_reqif.html
You can export several types of data from a requirements project to a ReqIF file, including these types:
  • Textual artifacts
  • Graphical artifacts
  • Artifact types
  • Modules
  • Collections
  • Links to other artifacts in the RM project
  • Link types
  • Folders
  • Folder hierarchy
  • View column information
The following types of data cannot be exported:
  • Tags
  • Comments
  • View filtering information
  • Reviews
  • Audit History
  • Links to artifacts in applications that are integrated by using OSLC, such as Rational Team Concertâ„¢ and Rational® Quality Manager

Thanks for your response Donald.

I believe you are right referring to this link as the answer.

As an alternate when I tried having project artifacts using Project Templates in a way, It does not show folder architecture. Any comment on that?

Can you please clarify what you're trying to do? What template are you using - process template, project template of artifact template? Have a look at the below article and post, and let me know there anything is related.
