TLDR : Answer Summary
If you have a retirement visa in Thailand along with a multiple re-entry permit, you are set for your travels. When exiting and re-entering Thailand, ensure that your multiple re-entry permit is stamped in your passport, valid until your visa's end date. It's important to check the entry stamp upon your return to confirm your allowed stay duration. Generally, there are no additional requirements, but always double-check your stamps and the validity of your permit.

You're set up to go and return with the MULTIPLE RE-ENTRY PERMIT you have stamped in your passport. It is valid until the current ending date of your one year extension of stay as retired. Safe travels ✈️

they got their extension 5 weeks before their visa or previous extension expired. The current extension is then added on.
