Dumfries and Galloway [dʌmˌfɹiːsənˈgæləweɪ] (gälisch Dùn Phris agus an Gall-Ghaidhealaibh) ist eine von 32 unitary authorities in Schottland. Im Norden grenzt sie an North Ayrshire, East Ayrshire und South Lanarkshire, im Osten an Scottish Borders und im Süden an die englische Grafschaft Cumbria. Es liegt nördlich des Solway Firth und östlich der Irischen See.

Der Verwaltungsbezirk Dumfries und Galloway umfasst drei traditionelle Grafschaften; im Osten Dumfriesshire, im Zentrum Kirkcudbrightshire und im Westen Wigtownshire. Die zwei letzteren werden zusammen auch als Galloway bezeichnet.

Nach Galloway wurden die Galloway-Rinder benannt.
