Non-EU citizens cannot vote in normal elections, but Dresden runs a dedicated election for international residents. For federal, state, local, and European voting rights in Germany, see Voting in Germany.

Integrations- und Ausländerbeiratswahl (Integration and Foreigner Advisory Council election) takes place every five years, often alongside major state or local elections. Voting is postal only (Briefwahl, compulsory for this ballot). See Dresden elections for dates.
