Summary
If you make R 114 000 a year living in South Africa, you will be taxed R 5 235. That means that your net pay will be R 108 765 per year, or R 9 064 per month. Your average tax rate is 4.6% and your marginal tax rate is 19.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of R 100 in your salary will be taxed R 19, hence, your net pay will only increase by R 81.
