According to the Bible, the first named Moabite who goes into Israel is Ruth. However, it is highly unlikely that she was the first Moabite to enter Israel as the Moabites and Israelites had economic and political relations during the period of the Judges as well.

The Israelite woman who had two Moabite daughters-in-law was Naomi. After the death of her husband and sons, she decided to return to Bethlehem from Moab, urging her daughters-in-law, Orpah and Ruth, to stay in their homeland. While Orpah chose to remain in Moab, Ruth famously insisted on accompanying Naomi, declaring her loyalty and commitment. This story is recounted in the Book of Ruth in the Hebrew Bible.
Boaz was indeed a prominent figure from Bethlehem who married Ruth, a Moabite woman, which might seem contradictory to the Israelite prohibition against Moabite intermarriage. However, Ruth's story emphasizes her loyalty and conversion to the Israelite faith, making her integration into the community acceptable. Additionally, the laws surrounding intermarriage were more about preserving the cultural identity of the Israelites rather than an absolute prohibition against all Moabites. Boaz, being a relative of Ruth through her deceased husband, also fulfilled the role of a kinsman-redeemer, which allowed for their union.
