The Deutsche Internationale Schule Jeddah (DISJ) is located in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, in the Ar Rabwah district on Asmaa Bint Abi Bakr Street. It is near the city's Red Sea coast, with a local postal address associated with Jeddah 21472 and a P.O. Box 7510. Public roads provide access to the campus.

DISJ is structured into four levels: Kindergarten, Primary (grades 1–4), Secondary I (the orientation year 5), and Upper School (Gemischtsprachiges International Baccalaureate, GIB).

DISJ is a coeducational day school. Public listings identify it as a coeducational, day-division school.

DISJ provides German language courses in small groups with qualified teachers. Public materials do not publish specific details about additional learning needs (SEN) provisions beyond language-support offerings.

DISJ is an acknowledged German Auslandsschule (German school abroad) and operates under German regulatory structures via BLASchA and KMK oversight.

The school has no publicly stated religious affiliation and is presented as a secular German international school.

Publicly listed working hours show a school day commonly referenced around 9:00 to 15:00, with variations by grade level.

A dedicated DISJ school bus service is not publicly published. Jeddah has a public bus network operated by SAPTCO, which serves the city, and families typically arrange transport accordingly.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- If a term tuition invoice is not paid in full by the due date, a late fee of SAR 1,000.00 (exclusive of VAT) will be charged each month until settlement. Grade certificates will not be issued in original format and the student's release in the national student system will be withheld until all outstanding amounts are fully paid.
- Deregistration (withdrawal) must be communicated in writing at least one calendar month in advance using the school's deregistration form. The school allows applications for deferral or late payment within the payment period on request to the office.

Boarding fees
- No boarding fees are published. The school is operated as a day school and no boarding program or boarding charges are listed in the published fee schedule.

Other costs (uniforms, supplies, extras)
- A dedicated School Supplies Fee is charged (SAR 1,610.00 per term, inclusive of VAT). No separate uniform fee is listed in the published fee schedule as a distinct charge. Additional optional or occasional charges (for trips, extracurricular activities, specific materials or other school services) are not itemized in the published tuition schedule.

Refund information
- Fifty percent (50%) of the one‑time registration fee is explicitly designated as a non‑refundable administrative fee.
- Deregistration requires one calendar month's written notice; the published schedule specifies withholding of official grade documents until outstanding amounts are fully settled and imposes the monthly late fee for overdue payments. No other specific tuition‑refund rules are listed in the published fee schedule.

Fee payment options and administration
- The published tuition schedule sets out invoice dates, due periods and penalties but does not list specific accepted payment methods (for example: bank transfer, card or other channels). Families should make payment arrangements directly with the school's accounting/administration office; the administration and accounting office are the contact points for billing and payment queries.

If you need the figures presented in a different format for your database, the amounts above are the official numeric values and are stated in Saudi Riyals (SAR).

No publicly published data on pupil nationality mix is available; DISJ serves an international German-language student body through its GIB program and German-language offerings.
