Answer summary
To renew your extension of stay based on retirement in Thailand, you will need to bring several documents including:
1. A letter of income from the British Embassy (note that this might not be available for future renewals).
2. A recent bank book showing a balance of 800,000 THB that has been maintained for at least 3 months.
3. A condo rental contract.
4. A certificate from a Bangkok bank.
5. Your passport and associated fees.
It’s recommended to have photocopies of all documents as well. Additionally, at the immigration office in Jomtien, there are official helpers available who can assist with the process for a small fee.

In my case at Jomtien in October.... bank book showing balance of 800k been in for 3 months , condo contract . Certificate from BKK bank . Passport , fee . In fact as you go into immigration. Look left and there’s ‘ official ‘ helpers to get everything sorted for you , tip 100 or 200 bht , they sort it all 👍🏼

As I say if you have a day or two spare , pop down there , on the left a team of people will tell you exactly what you need , and they will also copy and bundle every together for you , for a couple of hundred baht ..
it’s official so there’s no issue . It’s to help immigration . As they are so busy it saves getting refused by getting turned away on a minor detail

it’s on the list as a requirement and you need to obtain as near to the date of your visit as possible , ie a day before , so I always pre warn ( Bangkok bank ) go in they produce it showing balance etc on headed paper .. no problem .. this is ofcourse if you going the 800k route . Which in your case is irrelevant if you going by income as you say .
