"...

The [Australian] Embassy and Consulate-General [in Thailand] will no longer witness statutory declarations stating income or bank balances:

As of 7 January 2019, we will no longer provide this service.

Why [is the Australian Embassy/Consulate] doing this?

The minimum income requirements to obtain certain Thai Visa’s has been in place for some time. Thai Immigration want us to verify the income stated in your declaration and we are unable to do this.

any Thai insurance considerations would be best answered with a direct question to the Thai insurance company as they would be the one deciding to pay out or not pay in the event of any claims, and that would vary according to the specific coverages that have been bought or not and details of the Thai insurance policy....

An ASEAN Driving License will only be valid according to this Agreement if there is dual English language on the Driving License.

is your Indonesian Driving License in Bahasa Indonesia only or both Bahasa Indonesia and English? if dual language, then just use the Indonesia Driving License.

Otherwise convert to a Thai Motorcycle Driving Licence....

Personally, I think you should just stick to the "KISS" principle: "Keep it Simple, stupid" and just use your USA passport while inside the USA to apply for a Thai Visa with the Thai Embassy or Thai Consulate in America. This will be a Thai e-Visa if inside the USA.

Also, something outside the topics of Thai Visas or Thai Immigration, but if you decide to use your Brazilian Passport, you will find that any potential "advantage" of 90 days Bilateral Visa Exemption (ผ. 90) entry into Thailand, probably do not outweigh the potential several disadvantages that one may encounter, such as: any Brazilian documents in Portuguese have to be translated to English, there isn't a Brazilian Embassy/Consulate in every country across Asia, many other Asian countries require Visas for Brazilian passports (in comparison to USA passports), etc. etc.

it's USD $40.- for all nationalities for a Lao Visa on Arrival, except for China.... oftentimes, if you don't have a photo then add $1 to be USD $41.- make sure the bankrotes, are clean and crisp (new)....
