Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer USh 9,856 to pay you USh 98,562. In other words, every time you spend UGX 10 of your hard-earned money, UGX 4.86 goes to the government.
Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 38.6% tax rate now rises to 44.2%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.6% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary

If you make USh 205,008,190 a year living in Uganda, you will be taxed USh 79,177,686. That means that your net pay will be USh 125,830,505 per year, or USh 10,485,875 per month. Your average tax rate is 38.6% and your marginal tax rate is 45.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of UGX 100 in your salary will be taxed UGX 45, hence, your net pay will only increase by UGX 55.

Bonus Example

A UGX 1,000 bonus will generate an extra UGX 550 of net incomes. A UGX 5,000 bonus will generate an extra UGX 2,750 of net incomes.
