Both your iPad and iPhone must be signed-in to iCloud with the same AppleID. Assuming that they are, ensure that you have enabled Contacts and Calendar in iCloud (and any Apps and services that you wish to synchronise) in settings on both devices:
Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > iCloud > [Apps Using iCloud] Show All >

if both are set to sync contacts to icloud it should happen automatic
