10^-43 seconds

Explanation:

d = vt

For d, the distance, we use the Planck Length.
For v, the velocity, we use the speed of light.
And we can solve for the time, t.

The Planck Length is about 1.6*10^-35 m.
The speed of light is about 2.998*10^8 m/s.
Light traveling at c, the speed of light, will travel this distance in about 10^-43 seconds. This is also known as the Planck Time.
