It varies by country and item. Dunkin’ drinks — coffee, espresso, tea — are generally halal by ingredient, but some food, such as certain donuts and baked goods, can contain gelatin or animal-derived additives, and US locations are uncertified. In several Muslim-majority markets Dunkin’ is locally halal. Check the specific item and market.

The short version
Dunkin' drinks are generally halal by ingredient. The caution is on the food, and US locations are uncertified.
The drinks
Coffee, espresso, tea and the milks are not a halal concern by ingredient — the core menu is the safe default.
The food caveat
Some Dunkin' donuts and baked goods can contain gelatin (often animal-derived) or emulsifiers of undisclosed source. So the food is where to check rather than the coffee.
Abroad
In several Muslim-majority markets, Dunkin' is locally halal-certified. In the US it is uncertified, so rely on ingredient checks.
