What CID is it, and is the boot loader locked, re-locked or unlocked?
If you disable Fast Boot and boot into the bootloader you'll be able to check. If you bought it imported it might have a different cid to that of your region. SuperCID should sort it but you need to be S-Off, which if you're a test device you probably already are. Also it needs to have the boot loader locked or re-locked and to have the stock recovery and not be rooted in order to get the OTA updates.
