Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer USh 11,000 to pay you USh 110,000. In other words, every time you spend USh 10 of your hard-earned money, USh 2.50 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
22.7%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 15% tax rate now rises to 22.7%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 7.7% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make USh 5,720,000 a year living in Uganda, you will be taxed USh 856,000. That means that your net pay will be USh 4,864,000 per year, or USh 405,333 per month. Your average tax rate is 15.0% and your marginal tax rate is 35.0%. 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 35, hence, your net pay will only increase by USh 65.
Bonus Example
A USh 1,000 bonus will generate an extra USh 650 of net incomes. A USh 5,000 bonus will generate an extra USh 3,250 of net incomes.
