Abstract
This paper aims to define and study a notion of orientability in the Heisenberg sense (-orientability) for the Heisenberg group . In particular, we define such notion for -regular -codimensional surfaces. Analysing the behaviour of a M\"obius Strip in , we find a -codimensional -regular, but not Euclidean-orientable, subsurface. Lastly we show that, for regular enough surfaces, -orientability implies Euclidean-orientability. As a consequence, we conclude that non--orientable -regular surfaces exist in .
