Restoring the database directly from the portal will not work involving two different subscriptions. It can be done in with Bacpac file as mentioned in this article.

For anyone else arriving here looking for a solution for restoring a backup from a Managed Instance to a Managed Instance in different subscription, please note this answer is not targeting that scenario. – Mike Devenney Aug 18 '22 at 14:11

Restoring to different subscription is not possible. Use copy_only backup to URL option and restore it to another sqlmi instance. If service managed TDE is blocker then try disabling it or use customer managed BYOK TDE settings.
