Advanced talks on a visit by the King are said to be under way, and William is likely to make a separate visit during the FIFA World Cup later in the year, according to The Times newspaper.
The visits would coincide with the 250th anniversary of the signing of the US declaration of independence from Britain, and would be the first by a British monarch since 2007.
But it would also come as the UK continues efforts to finalise a trade deal with the US, after Washington reportedly paused the tech partnership announced during President Donald Trump's state visit to the UK in September.
Earlier in December, the UK government said it was still in "active conversations" with the US on the tech deal.
Reports suggested US negotiators had become frustrated by slow progress in agreeing a wider trade deal announced in May 2025, when Britain avoided the 20 per cent tariffs that Trump imposed on much of the rest of the world.
Britain's digital services tax, opposed by Trump's big tech backers, and the sensitive issue of greater access to British markets for US farmers, are thought to be key sticking points.
The Times suggested the King's visit to the US could take place in April.
William, who is president of the Football Association, could then visit during the World Cup being held in the US, Canada and Mexico between June and July.
