The 18 - 20 week scan usually, but as far as I know they can tell from about 16 weeks.
I've never heard of anyone knowing at 12 weeks unless they had an amniocentesis.

I found out at 16 weeks because I had an amnio.
Most women find out at the scan around 20 weeks but sometimes bub doesn't co-operate and closes their legs and then you can't find out at all. Most places that do scans will not tell you any earlier than the morph scan.
I had two scans around 16 weeks and there was no discussion whatsoever about the sex of the bub. It's just not something that the better scan places will discuss that early.
Determining the sex by ultrasound is not 100% accurate though so they do still get it wrong occasionally.
