To disable a tag in React, set the `disabled` attribute to `true`. For instance, to disable a button, use `<button disabled={true}>Click me</button>`. This makes the button non-interactive and grayed out. Similarly, apply this attribute to input fields or other form elements as needed. Here's a brief example: `const MyComponent = () => <button disabled={true}>Submit</button>;`.
