# HubSpot: merge duplicate contacts or companies

## Steps
1. Navigate to the records (CRM → Contacts, or CRM → Companies).
2. Select the primary record (the one to keep) and click its name.
3. In the left panel, click the **Actions** dropdown menu.
4. Choose **Merge**.
5. In the dialog, click the dropdown and search for the duplicate (secondary) record to merge in.
6. Review which property values will be retained (click a value to choose it; the primary record's values are selected by default).
7. Click **Merge** to confirm.

## End state
The two records become one; HubSpot notes the merge is in progress and can take up to 30 minutes for all activities to sync.
