Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer USh 70,000 to pay you USh 700,000. In other words, every time you spend USh 10 of your hard-earned money, USh 3.18 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
28.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 21.8% tax rate now rises to 28.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make USh 8,400,000 a year living in Uganda, you will be taxed USh 1,831,068. That means that your net pay will be USh 6,568,932 per year, or USh 547,411 per month. Your average tax rate is 21.8% and your marginal tax rate is 36.4%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of USh 100 in your salary will be taxed USh 36.39, hence, your net pay will only increase by USh 63.61.
Bonus Example
A USh 1,000 bonus will generate an extra USh 636 of net incomes. A USh 5,000 bonus will generate an extra USh 3,181 of net incomes.
