Coming up with UUIDs

Hieu

I am looking into registering product with Bluetooth SIG, and was reviewing this document:

www.bluetooth.com/.../qualification-listing-fees

There I found the item "16-bit Universally Unique Identifier (UUID)." Is this the fee to register an UUID with the SIG 128-bit base?

If I would like to run a custom service, can I still choose a random UUID? Would that be alright legally? I did run into some problem setting them up with the SoftDevice but that is a story for another time.

I am not sure if this is the right place for this. I found a few questions of similar nature so I figure it is fine. But if it is not, I am sorry.

    Hi Hieu,

    We are not the best to answer questions related to Bluetooth Sig. But you can ask the question here, we will try to help.

    Correct, the fee is to acquire one UUID with the 128 bit SIG UUID base. After you acquire, your UUID will be listed here.

    If you want to use a customer service, and doesn't want pay and register yours, you can simply choose a random 128 bit UUID base. Then you are free to use any 16 bit UUID with that base. Note that you should use a UUID generator (online) to generate your base, there is some requirement regarding the way you generate the UUID.
