Summary
If you make KSh 87,000 a year living in Kenya, you will be taxed KSh 11,220. That means that your net pay will be KSh 75,780 per year, or KSh 6,315 per month. Your average tax rate is 12.9% and your marginal tax rate is 10.0%. 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 10, hence, your net pay will only increase by KSh 90.
