Price with VAT-

How VAT works in Kenya

The standard VAT rate in Kenya is 16%. To add VAT, multiply the price by 1.16. To find the VAT inside a VAT-inclusive price, divide the price by 1.16, then subtract the result from the price.

A business must register for VAT when its taxable sales reach KES 5 million in 12 months. It files the VAT return and pays by the 20th of the next month.
