ORIGINAL POSTERHas anyone been asked to attend the DTV interview in person in Bangkok? Is this even a thing?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The consensus among community responses is that attending a DTV interview in person in Bangkok is not a requirement, as the DTV visa must be applied for from outside Thailand. Interviews are typically conducted at the embassy where the application is submitted.
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.

Definitely not a real thing. Interview would only happen at the embassy you applied. Obviously not in Thailand.

Never as the DTV is not issued within Thailand.
Anonymous ******************
You will never be asked to do so as you have to apply from abroad and can't be in Thailand. They may contact you for an interview in the country you apply.

You cannot apply for DTV while you are in Thailand. You must exit the country.
So the answer to your question is NO.
