Kenya is a great country for an expansion, especially if you want to form ties to other countries in Africa. While you get ready for this exciting time, G-P can help make it as successful as possible.
As a global Employer of Record (EOR), we’ll manage the risk so that you can manage your company. With us, you don’t have to set up an entity and can start working in Kenya quickly and compliantly. We’ll also streamline payroll and make sure your teams get paid the right amount at the right time.
Taxation rules in Kenya
Employers and employees currently each contribute to the National Social Security Fund (NSSF). Employees also need to contribute a percentage of wages to the National Hospital Insurance Fund, dependent on their income. Keep in mind that Kenya uses a pay-as-you-earn (PAYE) system where employers deduct taxes from an employee’s salary or wage. U moet de juiste berekeningen maken om aan de regels te blijven voldoen.
Kenya payroll options for companies
Companies have 3 main payroll options in Kenya:
- Internal: Large subsidiaries with a long-term commitment to Kenya may create their own internal payroll to pay employees. If you pick this option, you’ll need to hire a large HR team and make sure you have a compliance expert to help you along the way.
- Local payroll processing company: A local Kenya payroll processing company is another option businesses can choose. Hoewel dit bedrijf uw salarisadministratie kan afhandelen, moet u zich nog steeds zorgen maken over naleving.
- G-P: The easiest way to run payroll in Kenya and stay compliant is partnering with an Employer of Record (EOR) like G-P. With us, you can rest assured that all employees will be paid on time and compliantly, freeing you to focus on other important aspects of your business.
How to set up a payroll in Kenya
De grootste vereiste voor het opzetten van uw Keniaanse salarisadministratie is het oprichtingsproces. Companies not using our EOR model will need to register a subsidiary in the country before hiring employees and paying them. Het kan echter maanden duren om zelfs in Kenia op te nemen, waardoor de rest van uw activiteiten wordt vertraagd. G-P will help you start working in a fraction of the time without the stress of compliance.
Voorwaarden voor recht/beëindiging
Elk land heeft andere rechten en ontslagvoorwaarden. Adding these requirements to an employment contract before choosing a Kenya payroll option can help you stay compliant. You can hire an employee using a probationary term of up to 6 months that you can renew every 12 months. If you want to terminate an employee paid monthly or on a longer basis, they need at least 1 month of notice.
