If you wish to convert to the Kindle format, IMO, the best course of action is to upload your EPUB file directly to KDP. This will give you Amazon-generated .mobi file in the "Downloadable Previewer," which you can publish as your final Kindle book.
Calibre produces .mobi files that can be rejected by KDP, especially if you try the new AZW3 format. The old MOBI format (KF6) generated by Calibre is less likely to be rejected, but I have seen enough formatting problems with this sort of .mobi files on the KDP Formatting forum to not recommend this method for publishing on KDP.
