It depends on which country you want to know about. For instance New Zealand gave women the vote in 1893, Finland in 1906, the Netherlands and the Soviet Union in 1917, Great Britain in 1918, Germany in 1919 and the US via the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution in 1920.

In four western states, women had the right to vote in local elections before the 19th century ended.

Voting rights for all female citizens of voting age in all elections in the United States, federal and local, was provided by the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, which was ratified in the summer of 1920. The Presidential election of November 1920 was therefore the first occasion on which women in all states were able to vote.
