Tax treatment of manufactured overseas dividends to which regulations 4, 5 and 7 apply – further provisionU.K.
8. For all purposes of the Tax Acts as they apply in relation to persons resident in the United Kingdom or to persons not so resident but carrying on a business through a branch or agency in the United Kingdom, any manufactured overseas dividend to which regulation 4, 5 or 7 applies shall be treated in relation to the recipient, and all persons claiming title through or under him–
(a)as if it were an overseas dividend of an amount equal to the amount of the manufactured overseas dividend, or
(b)where paragraph (3) of regulation 4 applies and the amount of tax required under that paragraph in respect of the manufactured overseas dividend has been accounted for and paid, as if it were an overseas dividend of an amount equal to the gross amount of the manufactured overseas dividend, but paid after the withholding therefrom, on account of overseas tax, of the amount accounted for and paid; and the amount accounted for and paid shall accordingly be treated in relation to the recipient, and all persons claiming title through or under him, as an amount so withheld instead of an amount on account of income tax.
