The statement from the Mexican Foreign Relations Department on Tuesday said Secretary Luis Videgaray will be in Washington from April 4-6.
The trip will enable the Foreign Secretary to reaffirm the importance of the Mexico-US relation with key US actors and follow up on the main bilateral and regional issues.
The meetings would include those with US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly.
The statement also said Videgaray will meet with both Republican and Democrat senators, and attend a session of the Organisation of American States (OAS).
