Hello,
Welcome to Microsoft Q&A,
Yes, Microsoft’s official communication, Azure Container Registry (ACR), will retire Helm 2 support and legacy Helm repositories (via az acr helm) on September 15, 2025. This includes:
Deprecation of az acr helm push and az acr helm
Deletion of all Helm charts not stored as OCI artifacts
Use Helm 3 + OCI Artifact Support to store Helm charts in Azure Container Registry.
Helm 3 supports storing charts as OCI artifacts, which is the path forward endorsed by Microsoft and CNCF.
