Summary
If you make KSh 20,544 a year living in Kenya, you will be taxed KSh 4,244. That means that your net pay will be KSh 16,300 per year, or KSh 1,358 per month. Your average tax rate is 20.7% and your marginal tax rate is 1.7%. 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 1.66, hence, your net pay will only increase by KSh 98.34.
