Summary

If you make ₦13,316,160 a year living in Nigeria, you will be taxed ₦4,050,508. That means that your net pay will be ₦9,265,652 per year, or ₦772,138 per month. Your average tax rate is 30.4% and your marginal tax rate is 32.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of ₦100 in your salary will be taxed ₦32, hence, your net pay will only increase by ₦68.
