I’ve read 72” as a minimum.

The real question is, how much space for a two-sink vanity THAT STILL ALLOWS FOR GOOD DRAWER STORAGE. Don't trade very necessary drawer storage for duplicate sinks, which are of questionable use.

Two sinks can be squeezed into 60" /5' ... but that gives you no drawer space. 72" /6' gives you a skimpy 12" of drawer space.

Depends a bit on the sinks and the bathroom. If you have two small sinks with little counter space- if you want a lot of counter space. If you have two big sinks and then... counter space. It is uncommon, but I've seen some bathrooms kind of split where there are two seperate units rather than a combined one. Or back to back sink setups. Or really inventive, like a smaller spit/toothbrush sink and a larger hair/baby/pet sized sink.

It could be helpful if you gave us a floorplan of the bathroom in question.
