version: experimental
---

The **forbidden** file is used to render UI when the [`forbidden`](/docs/app/api-reference/functions/forbidden) function is invoked during authentication. Along with allowing you to customize the UI, Next.js will return a `403` status code.

```tsx filename="app/forbidden.tsx" switcher
import Link from 'next/link'

export default function Forbidden() {
  return (
    <div>
      <h2>Forbidden</h2>
      <p>You are not authorized to access this resource.</p>
      <Link href="/">Return Home</Link>
    </div>
  )
}
```

```jsx filename="app/forbidden.jsx" switcher
import Link from 'next/link'

export default function Forbidden() {
  return (
    <div>
      <h2>Forbidden</h2>
      <p>You are not authorized to access this resource.</p>
      <Link href="/">Return Home</Link>
    </div>
  )
}
```
