I think that in WSDL, you can create a type that is a restriction of
string and specify that the length is 15. This provides a clue to a
WSDL client. However, the service, regardless of whether it is WSDL
aware, must check for the correct length itself, unless it uses an XML
parser that validates against XML Schema.
My recommendation is to have your service check that the length of the
incoming string is 15 characters. If it is not, throw an exception.
That exception will be turned into a SOAP Fault by Apache SOAP, which
the client will receive.

Subject: How Limit String Size parameter in SOAP service
Hi,
Currtently My SOAP service use method with String parameter. But in fact
my String size has always 15 caracters. Could i define a SOAP service
with a limited string parameter like
StringBuffer(15)

The varchar(15) refers to a database data type. Technically, because it is "varchar", it can be any length from 0 to 15 characters. In any case, such a piece of data would be exchanged as a "string" (or "xsd:string") using SOAP.
