Assuming your boyfriend is Thai and is resident in Thialand he should apply at the embassy in Thailand of the country where he will spend most of his time. So he should apply at the Spanish embassy. If he is just in transit in Germany he wont need to show a visa there anyway.

You will find this thread and this thread full of information you want to know.

Yes, application to be made with the Spanish embass, as Spain is the main destination. However, he will have to clear immigration in Germany and than transfer to the intra-Schengen-flight for Spain. There will be no further immigration - check when arriving in Spain.

I used this number for the Spanish Embassy in Bankok, a really helpful lady, from 9am to 3pm.
