I think this thread from 2024 answers your question: Retired USexpat living in UK-IRA tax questionHello. I am drawing down a traditional IRA at Vanguard and moving it to the UK, where I live permanently. In another thread I was told the UK will tax withdrawals from my traditional IRA and 401k. On Vanguard's website, it says it will withhold 10% of the withdrawal for federal taxes. When I go to do my self-assessment in the UK, will I get credit for that 10%?
TL;DR - It's the other way around. You pay full tax to the UK, and recover the 10% US withholding by claiming US foreign tax credits for UK tax paid.
