ORIGINAL POSTER
I have a 1 year multiple entry OA retirement visa that expires on September 1st. I'm currently in another country and will return to Thailand on August 18th. Does it get renewed upon reentry for another year? If not what will I need to do upon arrival?

Thanks for any advice given....

TLDR : Answer Summary
You will be stamped in for one year upon each reentry, as long as your visa is valid and your health insurance meets the required duration.

On each entry until it’s validity date you will be stamped in for one year - or as long as your health insurance is valid until, whichever is the shorter.

I had the insurance upon entry the first time and was never asked for it. Will they ask for that when I return this time?

almost certainly yes. It’s a requirement for that visa entry. The fact they didn’t ask before May have been a fluke.
