Just think about how you record this with pen and ink....
But first, will you ever see the £20 again?
Does Foreign Government A pay this back at some time?
Will you be credited this by your government instead?
According to the answer, that tells you how you might note this on
paper.
Until you have spoken to your accounting expert in your own country,
put this £20 in an account of it's own, Asset:Withholding Tax:Country A
Later you move this to a preferred place in your account structure
