He will lead a Chinese delegation to the United States from Sept. 19 to 23 for consultations on "economic and trade issues of mutual concern", the official Xinhua news agency reported, citing the commerce ministry.
The talks will be guided by the "important consensus" reached by the two leaders, according to the ministry.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said this week he would meet He over the weekend.
Trade issues are expected to take center stage when Xi and Trump meet.
The world's two largest economies reached a fragile truce in October 2025 after months of tariff tensions triggered by Trump following his return to the White House.
The agreement helped cool fears of a damaging trade escalation, but negotiators on both sides have yet to reach a comprehensive settlement, leaving key disputes unresolved.
