TLDR : Answer Summary
A US citizen holding a Non O retirement visa (using the bank method) is inquiring about the best method for re-entry into Thailand after visiting the US. It is crucial to obtain a re-entry permit from Thai immigration before leaving Thailand. Additionally, being fully vaccinated may facilitate the re-entry process. The individual should ensure they meet all entry requirements established by the Thai Embassy or Consulate in the USA.

Yes make sure you go to immigration for the reentry permit before you leave. Bring passport photo and copies.

You will need to meet the requirements for entry back into Thailand at the time you seek application with the Thai Embassy or Consulate in the USA.

Be sure you have a REENTRY PERMIT in your passport BEFORE you leave Thailand.

suggest you get fully vaccinated while in the USA if not already done in Thailand. That may help you with your return to Thailand options for entry
