Born in the Netherlands to an Aruban father, Dumfries initially represented Aruba internationally in 2014, before switching allegiance to the Netherlands. He made his senior debut in 2018, and represented the Netherlands at UEFA Euro 2020, the 2022 FIFA World Cup and Euro 2024.
As a Rotterdam native, Dumfries began his football career at Spartaan '20 and spent two years before he was released by the club for being "not considered good enough as a boy" and was not well liked by teammates and even trainers. Shortly after, Dumfries then joined Smitshoek, having to "sign up for himself" and said about his time at the club, saying: "As a youth I could already go to Spartaan'20, but that was difficult. My parents always had to bring me, I had to wait until I could ride my own bike. It took some getting used to. Smitshoek was a village, this was in the city. You had to fight for your place, maybe I was a bit too timid among all those city boys. You might find it hard to believe now, but I was a bit shy and reserved. They were all men, tough guys." When he started out playing football, Dumfries played as a striker before converting to defender. Dumfries then signed up for amateur side Barendrecht and spent a year at the club. At one point, Feyenoord scouted the player but they rejected him, claiming that "he's not good enough."
Dumfries was eligible to represent Aruba through his father, Suriname through his mother, and his birthplace, the Netherlands. While still at Barendrecht, Dumfries received a call-up to play for the Aruba national football team. He made his debut in a March 2014 friendly match against Guam, starting a match, in a 2–2 draw. Dumfries scored a goal against the same opposition in their second encounter a few days later.
