Do I need a re-entry visa after voluntary re-entry ban expired?

You do not need to contact anyone, the rules for the ban governing your case are as below:

Re-entry bans

Voluntary departure at the Secretary of State’s expense People who breach UK immigration laws and leave the UK voluntarily at the expense (directly or indirectly) of the Secretary of State are subject to 2 year or 5 year re-entry bans. This includes those who leave the UK through an assisted voluntary return (AVR) programme at the Secretary of State’s expense, or otherwise voluntarily.

If you’ve been away for almost ten years, your ban is over.

Do I still need any re-entry visa? On what category should I apply?

You do not need a reentry visa however recommended practice by UK Immigration (see attached image) and on Travel.Exchange is you should apply for a Standard Visitor Visa.

For obvious reasons your chances of approval are slim at best. Do not purchase non refundable tickets or pay for hotel reservations until after you’re issued the visas. Even after you’re issued the visas, carry along all the documents you used to apply for your visa in case you’re grilled at the airport.
