Depends on the loading of the cartridge, and the gun it is shot from, but the 9mm Parabellum (9mm Luger) cartridge travels between 1200 and 1400 feet per second on the average.

How fast is a 9mm round?

Like many things, the answer depends- in this case, it depends on the load (powder and bullet weight) and whether fired from a handgun, or sub-machine gun/ carbine. In a handgun, the 9mm Parabellum may be as slow as 1000 fps, or as fast as 1300 FPS (about 1400 for a +P loading) A longer barrel would produce higher velocity.
