Hello Azure Support / Product Team,

I am registering on behalf of a company incorporated in Israel. We are highly interested in adopting the new Azure Trusted Signing (Artifact Signing) service for our software distribution pipeline, specifically looking at the cost-effective Basic Tier ($9.99/mo).

During the setup process under Identity Validation, we encountered the geographic restriction banner stating: "Artifact Signing is currently available to organizations in the USA, Canada, European Union & United Kingdom."

Since our organization is fully registered and verified in Israel, we are currently blocked from completing the vetting process. We would highly appreciate your insights on the following:

Roadmap & Timeline: Is there an official or estimated roadmap for expanding the Identity Validation (Vetting) integration to support organizations registered in Israel?

Preview / Beta Programs: Is there an active Private Preview, Public Preview, or an early-adopter program for Israeli entities that we can be whitelisted for?

This service is crucial for lean software publishers like us who require modern cloud-based code signing without the overhead of traditional hardware tokens.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Best regards,

Yossi

    I think Azure Trusted Signing vetting is still limited to the US, Canada, the EU, and the UK, and I have not seen any published schedule or preview option for Israel as of June 2026.
