The vast majority of helicopters cannot fly above around 8,000 ft. The SA.315 Lama however set a record by flying at 41,000 ft. It regularly operates at over 20,000 ft. It is the worlds highest flying helicopter. In India it is called the Chetak.
Helicopters themselves aren't the limiting factor in their ceiling. Above 12,000 feet, pilot and crew need to be on supplemental oxygen. That said, a helicopter's VTOL ability is of little value at altitude so their role means they stay within a few thousand feet AGL.
