ORIGINAL POSTER
I want to apply for a dtv visa in Poland (I am in Poland). What happens if I fly to Thailand while my application is being processed? I have a ticket for December 10th and I will submit my application only in a week, it is possible that they will not manage to process my application by the time of departure.

TLDR : Answer Summary
If you're planning to apply for a DTV visa while in Poland but have a flight to Thailand before the application is processed, it's crucial to stay in Poland until a decision is made on your visa application. Many community members suggest applying for the visa immediately and being aware that the embassy may require your presence during the application process and potentially for additional information once the application is submitted. It's also recommended to check the embassy's website for the visa processing time and to directly inquire about your specific situation to avoid complications.

Check visa application processing time at the Embassy website, and be aware that you have to stay in that country until the visa is approved.

If it gets approved and you got it via email adress you can still activate it,just go out of Thailand and come back,in case you are already in Thailand.

That often works, but it is against the rules, and it can lead to rejecting the application.

I would check the embassy site or email and ask them. Someone else posted this week about being asked for passport pages and other info from the Polish Embassy after they had left Poland.

Stay in Poland until you have a decision made about the DTV Visa Application.

Suggest you apply immediately, a recent post from another Polish citizen told about the embassy requesting passport pages and stamps, the embassy requirements include being in the country for the application submission, but it's unclear if they also want you there during the processing time.
