According to Adobe official site, Adobe Premiere Pro can import lots of compressed and uncompressed audio formats including MP3, WAV, AAC, AC3 (including 5.1 surround), AIFF, ASND (Adobe Sound Document), BWF (Broadcast WAVE format), M4A (MPEG-4 Audio) and WMA (Windows only). Adobe Premiere Pro will not import audio in other audio formats such as FLAC, CAF, OGG, Apple Lossless ALAC, APE, VOX, 3G2, AUD, MP2, etc. 

Why fail to import MP3, FLAC, CAF, OGG to Premiere Pro? 

Adobe Premiere is sensitive to audio formats and audio sample rate. If supported compressed audio files are imported, such as audio in MP3, WMA, AAC, M4A, AC3, are imported, Adobe Premiere will conform the audio to editing audio in corresponding sample rate to the sequence that will be used in. Adobe Premiere will conform audio in uncompressed formats that were not recorded in a natively supported sample rate. Premiere Pro will not conform audio in uncompressed clips when you use these clips in sequences with matching sample rates. Premiere Pro natively supports audio sample rates are 8000 Hz, 11025 Hz, 22050 Hz, 32000 Hz, 44100 Hz, 48000 Hz or 96000 Hz. That’s way many people successfully use MP3 or WMA files, however some people experience problems. The fact is that MP3 or WMA is a highly compressed audio format which may be compressed with a sample rate Adobe Premiere does not natively support. In this case, converting MP3 to standard AIFF before importing into Premiere Pro will solve the problem.
