Are you referring to the magnetic pole switch? That happens every 200-1M years, according to patterns on the seafloor. It’s been estimated that the last reversal was 780,000 years ago, so it theoretically could be any day now.

With that being said, I doubt that humanity will agree to turn all maps 180° to correspond.
