Does the Country Code make a difference when selecting an update file

[cxsmith]

I have a Samsung Note 10.1 GT-N8010 and want to upgrade to Android Kit Kat 4.4.2 some download sites show a number of downloads for different regions. I purchased the Tablet in the UAE and am now in Australia. Can I use the Australian Version?

Is there a good download site for this file?

Did some more research and chatted with Samsung (?) Your device is keyed to the country/region of purchase and therefore you must use the compatible ROM. Mine was purchased in the UAE so i needed to get the UAE Version which has XSG as the suffix.
