Withholding tax on investment fund unit income applies only to taxable distributions made to eligible non-resident investors.

Withholding tax applies where an Investment Fund specified in section 224 pays or credits taxable income relating to its units to a non-resident unit holder, other than a company, or a foreign company. The fund must deduct tax at rates in force at the earlier of credit or payment, without any monetary threshold. The withholding base excludes income exempt under Schedule V; accordingly, deduction applies only to the taxable component of income distributed to the eligible non-resident investor.
