Will doodling on my passport make it invalid?
I chanced on an article today, featuring a guy who likes to draw artwork into passports. The article claims that the passports still work without an issue.
Now I am pretty sure my passport says something like 'no manual annotations can be made without rendering it invalid', so I am a little sceptical about that article.
Has anyone experience on how drawing into one's passport effects its validity and how much that is enforced?
