I will use this post to kill two birds with one stone ;)

First off the O/P does NOT have a multi-entry retirement VISA :O

if you look at the stamp in the top left of the image you can see it says "extension of stay permitted until" (the part I circled in red) and has the date of Feb 13th 2025 <- That is NOT a visa :/

ALL extensions of stays inside thailand are sold without a re-entry permit, you buy it separate AFTER you get your extension :)

You can also see in the top right of the image they have a multiple re-entry permit, (the part I also circled in red) which is valid the same date as their extension Feb 13th 2025.

When they were stamped in they got an entry stamp good until the date their extension/re-entry permit stamps expired (Feb 13th 2025) and the "visa class" on the top of the stamp was Non-RE

What that means is they entered the country on a re-entry permit (the RE letters do not stand for retirement at all, just that you used a re-entry permit to come in).

That is totally the normal stamp you should get coming in on an extension with a re-entry permit and you were stamped in until your current extension expires.

Just a note, seeing as you entered the country on April 15th 2024 your 90 day report will be due on July 13th :)

So to recap, you're fine, that is the correct entry stamp you should have (y) I couldn't let your post on because when you tried to post the image you left the passport numbers visible (I blanked them out)
Answer summary
The inquiry was about the entry stamp received upon returning to Thailand on a multi-entry retirement visa. The response clarified that the stamp was indeed normal for someone who entered on an extension with a separate re-entry permit, distinguishing that the stamp had 'Non-RE' indicating a re-entry rather than a retirement visa. It ensured the original poster understood that their entry stamp was valid until their current extension expired in February 2025.
