I would really appreciate it if someone can let me know what are the updated requirements to renew/extend a one year retirement "visa". 

Specifically, i would like to know if a medical insurance is required.

I have been renewing my "visa"  for the past 3 years and i didn't need to submit a medical insurance.

(My extension of stay based on retirement was first issued here in Immigration Office in Bangkok.)

Thank you so much for taking time to read and answering my queries.

What's the original visa you entered on? Is this a Non-O, OR a Non-OA?

You do not need medical insurance for a Non-O visa based on retirement.
