Summary
If you make K 76,615 a year living in Zambia, you will be taxed K 11,320. That means that your net pay will be K 65,295 per year, or K 5,441 per month. Your average tax rate is 14.8% and your marginal tax rate is 37.6%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of K 100 in your salary will be taxed K 37.60, hence, your net pay will only increase by K 62.40.
