How to import a .obf POI file in OsmAnd I created this Data.osm file:

&lt;?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?&gt;
&lt;osm version='0.5' generator='GPSBabel-1.4.0'&gt;
  &lt;node id='-1' visible='true' lat='41.890121' lon='12.492265'&gt;
    &lt;tag k='name' v='place01'/&gt;
    &lt;tag k='note' v='place01'/&gt;
    &lt;tag k='tourism' v='museum'/&gt;
  &lt;/node&gt;
&lt;/osm&gt;


Then I converted it to Data.obf using OsmAndMapCreator.

How to have OsmAnd show this POI on the maps?
1) Copy the .obf file to your OsmAnd folder, for instance /sdcard/osmand.

2) In OsmAnd, enable the "POI > Any" layer.

3) Sometimes it does not work immediately, in such case restart your phone (there might be faster methods but at least restarting works)
