This assumes that you are neither Kenyan, Djiboutian nor Ethiopian in which case you do not require a visa at all.
This is a good correction to my post! I am either in transit to another (international) destination, or arriving in ADD as my final destination. "First point of entry" when you are staying in Ethiopia is key.
