His decision comes a week after scrapping the meeting.
The envoy, Gen Kim Yong-chol, came to the White House with a letter from the country’s leader Kim Jong Un.
“The relationships are building and that’s a very positive thing,” Trump said after the meeting, adding that he is yet to read the letter.
It’s the highest-level meeting between a US president and a North Korean official since 2000.
