Real tax rate
20.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 20.7% tax rate now rises to 20.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make KSh 743,077 a year living in Kenya, you will be taxed KSh 153,752. That means that your net pay will be KSh 589,325 per year, or KSh 49,110 per month. Your average tax rate is 20.7% and your marginal tax rate is 30.9%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of KSh 100 in your salary will be taxed KSh 30.93, hence, your net pay will only increase by KSh 69.07.
Bonus Example
A KSh 1,000 bonus will generate an extra KSh 691 of net incomes. A KSh 5,000 bonus will generate an extra KSh 3,454 of net incomes.
