Summary
If you make KSh 258,000 a year living in Kenya, you will be taxed KSh 32,824. That means that your net pay will be KSh 225,176 per year, or KSh 18,765 per month. Your average tax rate is 12.7% and your marginal tax rate is 13.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
