TLDR : Answer Summary
A British passport holder, having lived abroad for over 40 years and residing temporarily in Vietnam, is seeking advice on obtaining a retirement visa in Thailand. The individual has sufficient funds in Vietnam and Australia, along with a Thai bank account. Suggestions from the community recommend initially applying for a 90-day Non-Immigrant Type O visa before transitioning to a yearly extension. It is emphasized that there is no specific 'retirement visa,' but rather options like the Non-O and Non-O-A visas exist. Police checks should be obtained from the home country, where the passport was issued, such as the UK.
