Planning for the trip is ongoing as the Trump administration works to resume a ceasefire in Gaza between Israel and the Palestinian group Hamas and to get Hamas to release more hostages, it said.
Trump had told reporters on March 6 that he would likely visit Saudi Arabia "over the next month and a half."
"I am going to Saudi Arabia. Normally, you would go to the UK first. Last time I went to Saudi Arabia. They put up $450 billion," he said.
"This time, I said I will go if you put up a trillion dollars to American companies. Meaning the purchase over four years of a trillion dollars. They agreed to do that. So I am gonna be going there," he added.
The current plan is for Trump to travel to Saudi Arabia in mid-May, said a US official and a source familiar with the matter.
