In checking out BOM at airportmumbai.com for an upcoming trip, I noticed this in the Money and Telecommunications section of their home page:
Telecommunications centers, gift telephones, fax, Internet and photocopying, are located in both terminals. There are also telephones, land reservation counters, cupboard de mutation, ATMs and postal amenities throughout both terminals.
Never having heard of a "cupboard de mutation" before, I googled the phrase*. There were two hits on the entire Web: the page I had found, and a comparable one about facilities at CCU (Kolkata).
Can anyone here enlighten me as to what this term means, perhaps what it might be called in the UK or the US? Is it a bureau de change, a currency exchange office?
