Should I avoid the E-gate when entering Indonesia for my visa application?

When traveling to Indonesia, it's suggested to avoid the E-gate when passing through immigration due to not receiving a passport stamp, which may be necessary for visa applications. However, some users note that they received a confirmation email from immigration after entering through the E-gate, which can also be used as documentation for applications. Experiences vary, and it's advised to consider how your entry method might impact your visa process.
