The only "requirements" that I know of for a retired priest is that he should always be willing to hear a confession, if he is able, and someone asked it of him. A retired priest should be leading a exemplary Christian life, and if still capable, help out at the nearest parish. They still need to go to confession regularly, as do us all, and pray and practice their religion. I believe the only requirement is to forgive and anoint anyone who is on the brink of death.
