Although King & King classifies Dumpas as Paitanic, Lobel classifies Dumpas as a Dusunic language that is particularly closely related to Sungai Karamuak, but has been heavily influenced by neighboring Paitanic languages.
Presently, Dumpas is located north of Beluran town, where it is surrounded by Paitanic languages such as Sungai Paitan, Tombonuwo, Lingkabau, and Sungai Beluran. Tidung and Tausug are also spoken in the area.
