TLDR : Answer Summary

The DTV visa must be applied for from outside Thailand, not while already in the country. Therefore, you cannot start the DTV visa process after arriving in Thailand on a 60-day free visa. Instead, you need to leave Thailand and apply from a Thai embassy located in another country.

DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).
For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.

Nope. You will need to leave Thailand then apply via the Thai embassy in the country you travel to
