I can't stand my ground as that would mean sleeping over at the immigration office.

You could staple a small note (in Thai) to the front cover of your passport...

.... "Please do not stable anything into this passport"...

Would reporting the damage to the passport to the police be an option?

After all, I would need a police report to apply for a new passport and to get a refund of my expenses from my travel insurance.

That's a good joke.

They have that hateful habbit of stapling every absurd paper at Thai immigration. This should be banned. As try to argue with the immigration lady or chap. They will then make life hell for you at the counter. They are God after all. It's real despicable.

Gawd.. There are some snowflakes here... Immigration officers are simply human like everyone else.

Asking them not to use a stapler is not going see you deported !!

Obviously, if such criminal behavior is undertaken out of sight, there is little you can do about it, but for those about to witness the crime in progress... its ok to speak out !!.... "Oiy ya bugga... don't you dare"...
