According to the series, the Doctor can regenerate 12 times. His 13th incarnation would be his last.
However, they also established that the 12 regen life cycle can be restarted. The Master tried to use the Eye of Harmony's energies to trigger a new life cycle (since his 13th body had deteriorated to essentially a walking litch). The Time Lords also offered a new life cycle to the Master in The Five Doctors in exchange for going into the Dead Zone to rescue the Doctor.
If the new series holds to this, then he can regen a couple more times, but they have an "out" for him to continue by having him be able to gain a new life cycle by some means.

During Ian Davidson's tenure, I recall there was mention of 12 but it was unclear whether he was regeneration 4 or 5. Since it had been previously implied that there was no end, this number could also change. If it is now fixed then David Tennant is either number 9 or 8. We may find that there are other time lords alive as the revived series progresses. What exactly is Jack Harkness's relation to Galifrey and are we sure that the Master is deceased?

He actual regenerated 10 circumstances, because the eighth known practitioner regenerated in the course of the time conflict right into a hidden incarnation called the Warrior known practitioner (performed with the help of the mythical John damage), then he regenerated into his 9th kind (that's actual his 10th/ he did not call himself the overall practitioner at the same time as scuffling with interior the conflict). this signifies that David Tennant's portrayal of the overall practitioner is technically the 11th, even although he's frequently occurring because the 10th known practitioner
