Do you have a fully working remote key fob that locks and unlocks the car as it should?
If so perhaps the alarm system may not have been a standard item on the Japanese market cars?
There is also the posiability that it has been deactivated using the Jaguar software, but I am not sure that this can be done?
I do know that the Japanese cars were not fitted with the passive alarm system so they have not got the Thatcham category 1 alarm as all the UK and EU cars have.
This is perhaps something that you need to let your insurance company know about
