For individuals arriving in Thailand on a 90-day non-O retirement visa who plan to convert it to a one-year visa, a return flight or onward ticket is not required. The non-immigrant visa category allows for living in Thailand without needing to provide proof of onward travel.

Not necessary for a non-immigrant visa. The entire purpose of those visas is to live in Thailand.
