The Federal Council (Laiatanese: Федеральный совет, tr. Federal'nyy Sovet) is the upper house of the Laiatanese Federation Assembly. The other house is the People's Council.

The composition and powers of the Federal Council are established in Article Three of the Constitution of the Laiatanese Federation. The Federal Council is comprised of councilmen, each of whom represents a single oblast or the Volkgoroda Capital Territory. Each oblast and the federal territory are equally represented by three councilmen regardless of its population, serving staggered terms of six years. With 15 provinces and one federal territory, there are 48 councilmen. The Federal Council meets in the east wing of the Federation Assembly Building in the capital city of Volkgoroda.

The Federal Council has several powers of advice and consent which are not shared with the People's Council. These include the approval of treaties and confirmation of Cabinet secretaries, Federal Supreme Court justices, federal judges, other federal executive officials, flag officers, regulatory officials, ambassadors, and other federal uniformed officers. It further has the responsibility of conducting trials of those impeached by the lower house.

The presiding officer of the Federal Council is the Vice President of the Laiatanese Federation, who is President of the Federal Council. In the Vice President's absence, the President pro tempore, who is customarily the senior member of the party holding a majority of seats, presides over the Council.
