Rejection of the veto requires an absolute majority of both Federal Deputies (257 votes) and Federal Senators (41 votes).

8What is the primary structural and procedural distinction between a Complementary Law (Lei Complementar - PLP) and an Ordinary Law (Lei Ordinária - PL) in the Brazilian legislative process?
