Discussions over a possible autumn visit for the Russian leader are under way, the White House says.
US President Donald Trump has invited Russian leader Vladimir Putin to visit the US in the autumn, his press secretary says.
Sarah Sanders tweeted that discussions for the visit were already under way.
Earlier Mr Trump rejected a proposal by Mr Putin to allow Russia to question US citizens.
The two leaders held a summit in Finland on Monday but few details of what they discussed have emerged.
There has been no word from Russia about a second Trump-Putin meeting.
Controversy has raged over the Helsinki summit, with Mr Trump having to correct his own words from the press conference which followed.
But on Thursday Mr Trump said the talks had been a “great success” and he was looking forward to their next meeting.
