Registered locksmiths in the US have the key codes for VW as well as most all other makes of cars, also just about any kind of house key, padlock, etc. I have had keys made up by locksmiths from just my VW key code on several occasions. In the trade this is known as making a "code key" rather than a duplicate. It is usually one of my first steps after buying a new VW since I seldom get an original key with the car.
