Pulling out my TM6 didn't quite go as smoothly as intended. It didn't rip out any info on my stamp, but does anyone know if this tiny piece of paper ripped out on my current stamp's page will cause an issue when going to extend next month? Sorry about the silly question.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user expressed concern about a slight tear on their TM6 form and whether it would cause issues during their visa extension application next month. Comments from the community suggested that the primary concern is the visibility of the passport's data, and while damaged passports usually require replacement, the specific damage may not hinder the extension process. Some participants mentioned that immigration officers might be lenient with minor damage.

And then you think, lets not close a topic, what can go wrong?

people get funny, others want to beat by getting more funny, pictures with text get posted, all without any advice.

Some can not control themselves, so we have to do it again.

Officially you can not use a damaged passport. It must be replaced with a new one, but an Immigration Officer might be lenient as the damage is small and stamp the Extension of Stay in the passport.

Because most passports are chipped or read by machines you shouldn’t have a problem.
