A sum representing income tax which is deducted (or treated as deducted) under this Part from a payment is treated as income tax paid by the recipient.

The sum is accordingly taken into account under sections 59B and 59D of TMA 1970 (see also paragraph 8 of Schedule 18 to FA 1998) in determining the income tax or corporation tax payable by, or repayable to, the recipient.

But this section does not apply to income tax deducted at source under section 966 (visiting performers) or 971 (non-resident landlords).
