There is provided an image reading apparatus including: a reading unit that reads a document; a document transport unit that transports the document toward the reading unit; a binding member detector that detects a binding member binding the document by detecting a change in a magnetic field when the document passes through the magnetic field; a document detector that detects passage of the document when the document passes through the binding member detector; and a controller that receives information on the document detected by the document detector and information on the change in the magnetic field detected by the binding member detector, in which in a case where the binding member detector detects the change in the magnetic field in a document undetected state in which the document detector does not detect the passage of the document, the controller executes a predetermined process.
