r.in.* modules will (ie should generally) ignore the region settings. On the other hand, r.proj and GeoRect tools may observe the region settings (e.g. to pick target resolution). It may not be strictly necessary, but for those I usually first do v.in.region+v.proj then in the target location zoom to that projected bounding box and make sure the rows/cols are a nice round number slightly more than in the source region so no information is lost. If true-north is rotated between the two projections you'll need to be more than the original rows/cols, as the original cells are now along a hypotenuse. see i.rectify bug # 3166 (3rd order transform) https://intevation.de/rt/webrt?serial_num=3166 I go to this trouble as I'm still confused by the region cropping algorithms and can never remember which of the bugs have been fixed or not, so I use that method and it works. Probably it's not needed, but I prefer the comfort of overkill. I don't claim it is the correct method to use. After import with r.in.* you will need to change the computational region's zoom to cover that new data if you want to see/process it.
