This paper reports the heat and mass transfer effects in three-dimensional flow of a Maxwell fluid over a stretching surface with convective boundary conditions. Analysis is carried out in the presence of mass transfer with first-order chemical reactions, and with Soret and Dufour effects. Convergent series solutions to the resulting nonlinear problems were developed. It is found that the roles of Deborah and Biot parameters on the Nusselt number were opposite; however, the Sherwood number was qualitatively similar for both Biot and Deborah numbers. Also, variations of Prandtl and Biot numbers on the Nusselt and Sherwood numbers were similar.
