Officially, import and export of pkcs#8 files is not supported in NSS.
You may or may not be able to get it to work, but because of the
security concerns of PKCS#8 files, NSS does not support them.
PKCS#12 is the supported way to import or export private keys and their
related certificates. If you have a problem with PKCS#12, you can get
support from the NSS team.
PKCS#12 is the one universally implemented private key transport method.
OpenSSL also supports PKCS#12, and so does Windows.
