The Adelbert von Chamisso Prize (German Adelbert-von-Chamisso-Preis) is a German literary award established in 1985, given to a work whose author's mother tongue is not German, as was the case for Adelbert von Chamisso. It is offered by the Robert Bosch Stiftung.

In addition to the main prize with a prize money of 15,000 €), one or more promotional prizes ("Förderpreise") with a prize money of 7,000 €) and sometimes an honorary award ("Ehrengabe") are given.

The prize was created by Harald Weinrich.

In 2016, the Robert Bosch Stiftung announced that he prize will be ceased, saying it had its original objective thoroughly fulfilled.
