Now, my mother's current passport is stapled to her old passport, as in new passport's back page is stapled to old passport's first page. This in itself is not a problem and is common. But one of the staple pins seems to have a hole than what I'm comfortable with, on the last page of the new passport. It's still very small, and not peeling off, but it seems to have caused a break in the cover.

Is there any problem? Any personal experience?

Thanks
(I'll see if I can post some photos later)
