Tourist visa. 60 days plus you can extend for another 30. Doesn’t take long.

I would do 30 days Vietnam, then 30 days Thailand and 30 days extension at immigration.

Timing will be tight but having the visa makes life easier so I'd suggest applying ASAP. Also bear in mind that your airline may want to see a ticket out of Thailand within the 30 days you get stamped in for visa exempt to allow you to board your flight

Maybe ok but apply now.

Sometimes apparently they go by fly date. Plus apply if approved after you arrive just leave to nearby country and come back to use it
