International driving license in JEDDAH

Hi,
i come from LEBANON, and holding an international driving license,
intending to buy a new car,

1- is the international driving license valid and enough for buying and using a new car?? or it will be a MUST to apply for a Saudi Driving license?
shall I process an exam? what is the procedure?
2- for how long is an international driving license valid>? i read for only 3 month ???

thanks in advance!

International driving license is only valid for rental cars (some still dont accept).
In order to buy a car in KSA one must have a Saudi driving license.

Thanks!

You need to have a saudi driving licence to own a car.
U have to go to Dallah driving school if ur in jeddah.
Take with u 2 passport size color pic.
Passport copy
Residence permit copy
Fill required form
Submit it
U will b guided for eye sight test
Blood group
And finally test drive.
If u pass u get the license same day or the next.
And if u fail u need to join the learning classes of
Timings of ur choice.
Need any more info contact
