Summary
If you make USh 292,512 a year living in Uganda, you will be taxed USh 14,626. That means that your net pay will be USh 277,886 per year, or USh 23,157 per month. Your average tax rate is 5.0% and your marginal tax rate is 5.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
