Most aircraft don't have an absolute windspeed limit. A steady wind to the nose can theoretically be infinite strong. As you know, the aircraft performance is not the problem, it's the doors and the handling of the aircraft (tie it down).

However, most airline issue a maximum wind speed in their operational manuals, and this is around 60 kts.
