Follow-up question on this comment: If you buy IShares or Vanguard ETFs domiciled in Ireland then the 30% USA withholding on dividends is reduced to 15% because Ireland has a treaty with the US. The dividends are then paid to you with no more deduction. Effectively receiving 85%of the dividend.
Is it true that if incomes is taxed at source in the US, then buying ETFs domiciled in Ireland holding US stocks will result in double taxation as Ireland also has a 15% tax charged on dividend income?
