Uganda Payroll Software for PAYE and NSSF
Correct PAYE bands and NSSF contributions calculated automatically, on every pay run.
PAYE bands, current as of July 2026
Effective 1 July 2026, monthly PAYE bands are: 0% on the first UGX 335,000; 10% on UGX 335,001–410,000; 25% on UGX 410,001–485,000; 30% on UGX 485,001–10,000,000; and a 10% surcharge above UGX 10,000,000 (an effective 40% top rate). Hirepay applies the correct band automatically.
NSSF contributions, both sides calculated
Employees contribute 5% of gross monthly salary to the National Social Security Fund, and employers contribute a further 10% — 15% total. Hirepay calculates both automatically on every pay run.
URA-ready records
Hirepay keeps payroll records structured for URA reporting requirements, reducing manual reconciliation at filing time.
