What this value means
Mainland Tanzania resident individuals. The statutory PAYE schedule is expressed MONTHLY (0% up to TZS 270,000/month; 8% on 270,001-520,000; 20% on 520,001-760,000; 25% on 760,001-1,000,000; 30% above 1,000,000). Converted to ANNUAL here (x12). The 8% entry rate reflects the Finance Act 2022 cut from 9% (effective 1 July 2022); Finance Acts 2025 and 2026 made no change to the individual bands. Residents only — non-resident individuals pay a flat 15% on Tanzanian employment income. Zanzibar sets its own PAYE. The TRA page was not machine-fetchable at confirmation; bands confirmed via PwC Worldwide Tax Summaries (reviewed 14 Jan 2026).
