In the csv import dialog is a preview of the data. Click on the column

There choose 'Date(YMD)'. Now the dates should be recognized as date already
when importing the document.
Yes, but I was under the impression that the spreadsheet already
existed (was different from the CSV file) -- 'a document(csv converted
to spreadsheet)' so did not assume that was an available option.
Koen, if you are importing the CSV file from scratch, then setting the
import filter is absolutely the way to do the conversion. If the file
has already been imported and changes made, use either of the other
two options provided.
You can use the import filter afterwards too. Cut the dates in the
column and immediately insert them at the same place with option
"Unformatted text" (via the drop-down list of the insert icon). That
triggers the import dialog.
Kind regards
