3 seconds
When does the three-second count officially begin?

Ball in the backcourt - player in the lane, etc ...

When a player enters the lane with his or her team in team control. Was there a particular reason you were confused about this? Is this about a certain call that happened in a game?

Yeah, forgot that part. No five second or three second counts when the ball is in the back court.

unless you are calling a women's NCAA game, in which case you can have a 5 second count in the back court.
