USB VID/PID program still active ?

Hello,
we are a small company developing a home controller based on the LPC5528 with a USB CDC interface. Expected volume is well below 10,000 units. We would like to apply for a PID under the NXP VID via the USB VID/PID program.
The application form linked in the program FAQ (contact.nxp.com/vid-usb-app) is unavailable, and the Case Portal rejects our account because it is not registered on a company domain.
Is the program still active, and if so, what is the current way to apply?
Thank you!

Yes, the NXP USB VID/PID program is still active. The old web form (`contact.nxp.com/vid-usb-app`) has been deprecated and is no longer available.

The current official way to apply is by **creating a support ticket** directly through the NXP Community portal.

Here are the steps to get your free PID(s):

1. **Go to the NXP Community page**: Navigate to the official NXP USB VID/PID Program page: [链接] NXP USB VID/PID Program
2. **Create a Support Ticket**: At the bottom of that page, you will see a section titled **"For more details, please create a support ticket"**. Click on it.
3. **Fill out the Ticket**: You will need to provide the following details in the ticket:
- Your company name
- The number of PIDs you need (up to 3 are provided for free)
- A brief description of your product and its purpose
4. **Wait for Approval**: NXP will review your request. Please note that the process can take up to a month from submission to receiving your assigned PID(s).

**Important Notes for Your LPC5528 Project:**
- **Eligibility**: The LPC series (Cortex-M) is fully covered under this program.
- **Volume Limit**: Since your expected volume is below 10,000 units, you qualify for this program. If your production run exceeds 10,000 units, you would need to obtain your own VID from USB.org.
- **USB Logo**: Using the NXP VID does not grant you the license to use the USB-IF trademarked logo. If you wish to use the logo, you must go through the USB-IF certification process and have your own VID.

Thanks a lot for your help, but unfortunately I'm running in circles
As we are not able to link your email with a company, you are not eligible to create a new case on the Case Portal. Please use your company email address to log into NXP.com or raise your question via NXP community.
Thats what I always get, despite we're a professional small engeneering office we don't own a domain simply because we don't need it. I think our gmx e-mail adress is not accepted, thats the biggets issue.
Kind regards
Thomas
