It depends on a few things. The orbital period is a function o the planets mass and it's distance from the sun - see Keplers laws of planetary motion. Mercury is the closest planet to the sun and takes 88 days to make one orbit. Neptune is the furthest planet and takes nearly 165 years to make one orbit.
