13 emojis tagged forbidden in the official Unicode CLDR project. Click any emoji for its meaning, copy-paste, and per-platform rendering.
Forbidden emojis are functionally identical to the 'prohibited' set — 🙅 person gesturing NO, 🔕 bell with slash, ⛔ no entry, 🚫 prohibited, 🚳 no bicycles, 🚭 no smoking, 🚯 no littering, and 🚷 no pedestrians. The keyword exists as a synonym in CLDR data so keyboard searches surface the same prohibition family under multiple terms. Use these emojis to mark forbidden activities, set conversational boundaries, or comically signal 'absolutely not' in chat. The slash-through-symbol pattern follows international signage conventions designed for cross-language clarity.
Frequently asked about forbidden emojis
Why do 'forbidden' and 'prohibited' show the same emojis?
Both are CLDR synonyms — Unicode includes multiple English keywords for the same concept so keyboard search works regardless of which word the user types. 'Forbidden', 'prohibited', 'banned', and 'no' all surface essentially the same signage emoji family.
Is 🚫 the strongest 'no' emoji?
Visually, ⛔ no entry has the most weight (solid red with horizontal bar). 🚫 prohibited is more abstract and widely usable. For maximum prohibition emphasis, stack them: ⛔🚫. In professional contexts, 🚫 alone is typically sufficient and reads as clearly authoritative.
