hiring advice FAQ’s
Payroll services in Kenya offer businesses accuracy, compliance, cost savings, and efficiency. They ensure employees are paid on time, statutory deductions are submitted to KRA, NHIF, and NSSF, and detailed reports are available for HR and finance teams. Outsourcing payroll reduces risks of errors, saves administrative time, improves data security, and allows companies to focus on growth.
The setup process for payroll outsourcing in Kenya is relatively quick. Once a provider receives employee data, salary structures, and company details, payroll can be operational within days. Larger companies with more complex requirements may take slightly longer. A smooth onboarding process ensures accurate salary processing, statutory compliance, and reporting are in place from the start.
Yes, many payroll services in Kenya include expatriate payroll management. Providers calculate salaries, apply the correct tax rates, and ensure compliance with local regulations for foreign employees. This includes managing PAYE, social contributions, and reporting requirements. Businesses employing expatriates benefit from simplified payroll processes, reduced compliance risks, and assurance that their international staff are properly managed.
The process begins with a name search on the eCitizen platform to ensure your preferred name is available. Once approved, incorporation documents such as the Memorandum and Articles of Association, statement of nominal capital, and shareholder details are prepared. The documents are then submitted to the Registrar of Companies for approval. After verification and payment of the statutory fees, a Certificate of Incorporation is issued. Maxishr Consultants Ltd assists in managing this process end-to-end, ensuring compliance and efficiency.
On average, company incorporation in Kenya takes 5 to 10 working days, depending on the accuracy of the documents and workload at the Registrar of Companies. Delays often occur when shareholder information or supporting documents are incomplete. Working with Maxishr Consultants Ltd significantly reduces processing time because we ensure all documents are correct, compliant, and ready for submission.
