Yes, you are correct. You pay the taxes to the foreign
governments and get no benefit on your US tax return.

Default Withholding on Foreign Dividends in IRA Account

The dividends on Canadian stocks are withheld for Canada at
a 15% rate. The withholding is 10% for UK stock dividends.
These amounts can then be claimed as a US tax credit for
stocks held in a taxable account.

I assume that if I buy those stock in an IRA, the tax
withholding would still happen, but there is then no US tax
credit. Are my assumptions correct?

Thanks.
