The standards allow for up to 12. Not that people always implement them properly, but that's what you're supposed to support if (like me at the moment) you make credit-card terminals.

Cards issued by Commonwealth Bank in Australia actually don't come with a PIN - you set it yourself, up to 12 chars, online when you activate.
