Deduct UK withholding tax on US invoice

Deduct UK withholding tax on US invoice from US software development company for work done in USA?

Didn't find your answer?

Our UK Ltd company has contracted a US based company to provide software development.  All work is conducted outside of the UK.

My question is, should we deduct withholding tax on the invoice from the US software developers.  I have researched the internet (including here) and have no real conclusion.  In fact, in general, I find information on Interest, Dividends, and Royalties, nothing about general invoiced work.  Then the fact that the work is provided off-shore we are confused further.

Many thanks in advance for your answers and suggestions.

If there is no reference to it that may be because there is no need to deduct it.
