How to transfer merge two AWS accounts

I have two accounts.

Account A : This has some aws resources which should not ideally have any downtime. This is registered under [email protected] Account B : This account does not have any aws resources, but it has some aws credits. This is registered under [email protected]

I have the access to both accounts/both emails. How I can merge those two accounts so that I can utilize aws credits. Any method with no downtime is preferred. After the merge/migration, I am willing to keep any account as my primary account.

Thank you.

Based on AWS knowledge center article your requirement doesn't seem to be supported:

Issue

I have resources on multiple AWS accounts, and I want to merge all the resources together under one account. Is this possible?

Resolution

It's not possible to merge multiple AWS accounts together.

There is suggestion which might help you

However, you can use AWS Organizations to manage the permissions for multiple AWS accounts, and then combine the billing in one consolidated bill.

You can also transfer some AWS resources between AWS accounts. For example, with Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), you can share custom AMIs between accounts, which allows you to transfer instances between accounts. Because each AWS service is unique, the way to move resources between accounts varies by service. For more details, see AWS Documentation.
