Certifications merge
Is it possible to "merge" certifications for two iso certified companies that are in different "state" like one is in their 1 years, second is in 2nd years (surveillance audit) etc. after acquisition of another company or do you have to recertify it?

This situation needs to be evaluated by the certification bodies that issued the certifications, so you should contact them to receive proper clarification.
Technically speaking, the “merge” would mean an update in the scope of the certification that would receive the merged certification, and all sequential steps after a scope update (e.g., review of risks, implemented controls, etc.).
