Seoul: South Korea's chief nuclear envoy goes to China on Tuesday for talks over six-country nuclear talks on North Korea.
At the weekend, a US nuclear envoy returned from Pyongyang with documents detailing the North's weapons-grade plutonium programme.
Washington said this was an "important first step" in getting a full nuclear declaration.
North Korea is likely to make the declaration to China, host of the six-country talks, in the next two weeks, a South Korean official said.
A new round of the talks among the two Koreas, China, Japan, Russia and the United States is expected to take place in June, the official said.
