+### `tabIndex`
+
+You can add the `tabindex` attribute to an SVG element via the `tabIndex` prop if the SVG element is intended to be interactive.
+`tabIndex` prop also controls the `focusable` attribute of the SVG element which is defined by SVG Tiny 1.2 and only implemented in
+Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge.
+
+If there is no `tabIndex` prop is present (default behavior), it will set the `focusable` attribute to `false`. This is helpful
+for preventing the decorative SVG from being announced by some specialized assistive technology browsing modes which can get delayed
+while trying to parse the SVG markup.
+
+```js
+// Example usage
+import {PlusIcon} from '@primer/octicons-react'
+export default () => (
+  <PlusIcon aria-label="Interactive Plus Icon" tabIndex={0} /> New Item
+)
+```

 ### Sizes
 
 The `size` prop takes `small`, `medium`, and `large` values that can be used to
