How to transfer contacts from and old iphone to a new one which has been used or 2 weeks

I have an old iPhone XS and a new Iphone 15 Pro which I have been using for 10 days.

At the time of setting up the new Iphone, I didn´t have my old iPhone available so I couldn´t do a backup in iCloud and transfer the contacts from one phone to the other.

Now I was able to do a backup in iCloud of the old iPhone but I can´t really import and merge the contacts from the old phone to the new one.

Any tips?

Do I need to get a 3rd party tool to do this?

Thanks

iPhone 15 Pro

Contacts are synced to whatever cloud or mail program you use, you simply sign into said account on the 15 and enable contacts.
