Dutch Surinamese are Surinamese people of Dutch descent.

Dutch people started arriving in Suriname (previously known as Dutch Guiana) in the 19th century with the boeroes (not to be confused with the South African Boeren), who were farmers, arriving from the Dutch provinces of Gelderland and Groningen.^[2] Furthermore, the Surinamese ethnic group, the Creoles, persons of mixed African-European ancestry, are partially of Dutch descent. Many Dutch settlers left Suriname after independence in 1975, which diminished the Dutch population.
