If you want to be polite, you might say:
"Sorry, but I'm not authorized to do that."
or
"I'm sorry, but I don't have that authority."

Thank you for answering
So does that mean that "responsability" is not the word that I should use here? What about " This is not within my area of responsibility. " for example

Hmmm, although "responsibility" is the most direct translation, it can sound a little blunt or rude to say to a visitor or customer "it's not my responsibility."
Your suggestion "This is not within my area of responsibility" is good and sounds somewhat formal. But people may expect some further explanation or assistance. For example:
"This is not within my area of responsibility, but please speak to Ms. ____ in the booking office."
or
"This is not within my area of responsibility, but the gentleman at the main desk cam help you."
(I suppose it's not a grammar point, specifically, but a tone expectation in some work settings.)
