“The qualifications for Vice-President and President are identical.”

Since June 15, 1804 that is.

“AMENDMENT XII - Passed by Congress December 9, 1803. Ratified June 15, 1804.”

“But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.”

That is 220 years and includes the Vice Presidency of Chester Arthur and Kamala Harris. Indeed, that has been the law since before any natural born citizen was age-eligible to be the President.
