AB - We study possible <i>C</i><i>P</i>-violation effects of the 125 GeV Higgs to Z boson coupling at the 250 GeV ILC with transverse and longitudinal beam polarisation via the process e<sup>+</sup> e<sup>−</sup> → HZ → H μ<sup>−</sup>μ<sup>+</sup>. We explore the azimuthal angular distribution of the muon pair from the Z boson decay, and constructe <i>C</i><i>P</i>-odd observables sensitive to <i>C</i><i>P</i>-violation effects, where we derived this observable both by analytical calculations and by Whizard simulations. Particularly, we can construct two <i>C</i><i>P</i>-odd observables with the help of transversely-polarised initial beams and improve the statistical significance of <i>C</i><i>P</i>-violation effects by combining two measurements. We defined the asymmetries between the signal regions with different signs of the <i>C</i><i>P</i>-odd observables, and determine the <i>C</i><i>P</i>-violation effect by comparing with the SM 95
