Summary
If you make KSh 168,000 a year living in Kenya, you will be taxed KSh 21,216. That means that your net pay will be KSh 146,784 per year, or KSh 12,232 per month. Your average tax rate is 12.6% and your marginal tax rate is 12.4%. 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 12.40, hence, your net pay will only increase by KSh 87.60.
