Abstract: In this paper, we study the local Cauchy-Riemann embeddability of strictly pseudoconvex real hyperboloids $ M^{2n+1}$ into spheres. By solving a CR analogue of the Gauss equation, we prove that $ M^{2n+1}$ is CR-embeddable into spheres with a CR co-dimension $ <$ $ n-1$ if and only if it is spherical.
