What is Withholding Tax Recovery?
Tax authorities around the world withhold up to 35% of dividend and interest income paid to non-resident investors.
Fortunately, under Double Taxation Treaties, investors can recover over-withheld tax, improving return on investment. The map shows some of the preferential rates a U.S. investor can secure around the world (markets and rates are subject to change).
