TLDR : Answer Summary

The consensus is that if you are currently in Thailand on a tourist visa, you cannot apply for the DTV visa from inside the country. Application must be done from your home country or another country where you have residency. Additionally, the nationality of the applicant may affect processing times.

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.

Not quite sure what you mean? If you are currently inside Thailand on a tourist visa you can't apply for the DTV anywhere. You need to travel to the country you want to apply in, even if they use the evisa system

What nationality are you? Typically it will not be a problem. Some nationalities will undergo long processing times and extra scrutiny.
