Anyone know the dividend tax & capital gains tax for a Singapore investor for europe, more specially UK, Germany & France? Many thanks!?

Been looking to investing to foreign stocks.

Understand that HK have nil withholding taxes for both dividend & capital gains, while US is 30% for dividend, nil tax for capital gains, Swiss is 15% for dividend, nil tax for capital gains.
