                      DREYFUS PREMIER EMERGING MARKETS FUND
                 (a Series of Dreyfus International Funds, Inc.)

                Supplement to Prospectus Dated November 15, 2002

      The   following   information   replaces  and  supersedes  the  Prospectus
Supplement dated March 13, 2003.

      The  fund intends to close to new investors as of the close of business on
August  29, 2003 (the "Closing Date"). Shareholders of the fund at that time may
continue  to buy shares in existing accounts. Shareholders whose accounts have a
zero  balance  on or after the Closing Date will be prohibited from reactivating
the  account  or  opening  a new account. Investors who do not own shares of the
fund  at  the  Closing  Date  generally will not be allowed to buy shares of the
fund,  except that new accounts may be established by participants in most group
employer retirement plans (and their successor plans) and by most wrap accounts,
if  the  fund has been established as an investment option under the plans or by
the   wrap   accounts,   as  applicable,  before  the  Closing  Date.  Financial
institutions  maintaining omnibus accounts with the fund will be prohibited from
accepting  purchase  orders from new investors after the Closing Date. Investors
may  be  required to demonstrate eligibility to buy shares of the fund before an
investment  is  accepted after the Closing Date. The board reserves the right to
reopen  the  fund  to new investors after the Closing Date, should circumstances
change.
