TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around whether a Chinese national can apply for a DTV visa at a Thai embassy in Vietnam. It is noted that applications from Chinese passport holders require extended processing. Additionally, there are questions concerning the necessity for a spouse to leave Thailand when applying for a DTV visa.

Does this mean citizens from the countries on the list cannot apply for DTV on a tourist visa?
