Did you accidentally create more than one Facebook Page for your business? Duplicate Pages split your followers and reviews, and they confuse customers who are trying to find the real one. Meta lets you merge two Pages so the followers end up in one place. If you don’t have a Business Page yet, here’s how to set one up.
The steps below follow Meta’s current help article (Merge two Facebook Pages, checked October 2026).
Can you merge your Facebook Pages?
Meta will only offer the merge option when all of these are true:
- Same name, same thing. Both Pages have the same name and represent the same business. If the names differ, request a name change on one Page first, then merge once it’s approved.
- Same address if the business has a physical location.
- Same Business Manager account. Both Pages sit in the same business account.
- Not the primary Page. The Page you merge from can’t be the primary Page of a Business Manager account.
- Full control. You need Facebook access with full control. Task access isn’t enough.
You can’t merge two global Pages, and you can’t merge a verified Page into one that isn’t verified. If you follow the steps below and don’t see a merge option, your Pages don’t meet these rules yet. Meta also notes that merging may not be available to every user.
Found a duplicate Page you don’t manage?
Duplicates are often created by a former employee or an agency. You need full control of both Pages before you can merge them, and Meta only lets someone who already has full control grant that access.
- Ask whoever manages the duplicate to give you Facebook access with full control. Meta’s guide to requesting access to a Page covers this, including checking with former staff and contractors.
- If nobody can be found and the Page is pretending to be your business, report it from the Page’s menu.
If your Page roles look wrong in the first place, our guide to fixing Facebook Page roles walks through the access types.
What happens when you merge
- Followers and check-ins from both Pages are combined on the Page you keep.
- Groups linked to the merged Page move to the Page you keep.
- Posts, photos, reviews, ratings and the username are deleted from the Page you merge, and that Page is removed from Facebook.
- The merge can’t be undone.
Before you merge
- Pick the Page to keep. Usually the one with more followers, more reviews, or the username you want.
- Check your ads. Meta’s own instruction: make sure no campaigns point to the Page that will be deleted.
- Save your lead ad data. Lead forms belong to a Page. If the Page you’re removing has run lead ads, download the leads you still need before you merge, then rebuild the forms on the Page you keep.
- Match the details. Line up the address, phone number, website and About section so both Pages describe the same business.
- Download a copy of the Page you’re removing (steps below).
How to download a copy of your Facebook Page
You need Facebook access with full control. Per Meta’s download guide:
- Log in to Facebook and click your profile photo in the top right.
- Click See all profiles, then select the Page you want to switch into.
- Click your Page’s profile photo in the top right.
- Click Settings and privacy, then Settings.
- Click Download your information in the left column.
- Choose the format, media quality and date range, then tick the categories you want.
- Click Request a download.
Meta notifies you when the file is ready. The download link expires after four days.
How to merge two Facebook Pages
- Log in to Facebook and click your profile photo in the top right.
- Click See all profiles, then select the Page you want to switch into.
- Click your Page’s profile photo in the top right.
- Click Settings and privacy, then Settings.
- In the left menu, click Page setup.
- Next to Merge Pages, click View.
- Next to Merge multiple Pages, click Start request and follow the prompts to choose the Page to keep.
No Merge Pages option means the Pages aren’t eligible yet. Go back to the checklist above; a name mismatch or the two Pages sitting in different business accounts are the usual causes.
After the merge
- Check the surviving Page’s profile picture, cover image, About section and contact details.
- Post an update so followers know the old Page has gone.
- If you run lead ads, confirm the forms you rebuilt are connected wherever your leads go. LeadSync users can send a test lead to check each connection end to end.
If you manage several Pages for one business, Meta Business Suite keeps them in one place so duplicates are easier to spot before they build up.
