Withholding Tax on Income from Germany

Hi. I'm a board advisor for a german based company for a yearly income paid quarterly. I've been told as there is no reciprocal tax agreement between the UK and Germany, 30% of my quarterly payment is being witheld (I have the quarterly certificate). Two questions: 1) I assume I include the payments as additional income on my tax return? I'm not an employee. 2) How do I take the 30% tax withheld when it comes to my tax return submission? Thanks

Hi carlan14,
You will need to declare this as foreign income and claim the witholding tax as a Foreign Tax Credit:
Tax on foreign income
Thank you.
