Hi by the looks of your screenshot you have opted to be able to see both Classic and ARM VMs. I can't see from the shot which type you are working on, but you can't add tags to classic VMs - is this a Classic VM?

This is detailed here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/resource-group-using-tags

The permission you are looking for is called "Microsoft.Resources/subscriptions/resourceGroups/write" if I'm not mistaken You can create a custom role to assign that or use one of the built-in roles, like contributor.
