TLDR : Answer Summary

There is no minimum duration required to be out of Thailand after a Non-O (retirement) visa and multiple entry permit expire, provided the individual has not used excessive visa-exempt entries recently. One must simply ensure to leave before the visa expires.

No minimum, as long as not had lots of visa exempt entries recently.

But sounds like you came off a 1 year Non-O extension so all fine.
